1A Prayer of David. Incline your ear, O Lord, and answer me, for I am poor and needy. (诗31:2; 诗40:17; 诗72:20)2Preserve my life, for I am godly; save your servant, who trusts in you—you are my God. (诗11:1; 诗50:5)3Be gracious to me, O Lord, for to you do I cry all the day. (诗4:1; 诗56:1; 诗57:1; 诗86:16)4Gladden the soul of your servant, for to you, O Lord, do I lift up my soul. (诗25:1)5For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you. (出34:6; 诗86:15; 诗103:8; 诗130:4; 诗145:8; 珥2:13)6Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer; listen to my plea for grace. (诗55:1)7In the day of my trouble I call upon you, for you answer me. (诗17:6; 诗77:2)8There is none like you among the gods, O Lord, nor are there any works like yours. (出15:11; 申3:24; 诗89:6)9All the nations you have made shall come and worship before you, O Lord, and shall glorify your name. (诗22:31; 诗65:2; 诗66:4; 赛66:23; 亚14:18; 启15:4)10For you are great and do wondrous things; you alone are God. (申6:4; 诗72:18; 诗77:13; 赛37:16; 赛44:6; 赛44:8; 林前8:4; 林前8:6)11Teach me your way, O Lord, that I may walk in your truth; unite my heart to fear your name. (诗25:4; 诗26:3; 耶32:39)12I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify your name forever.13For great is your steadfast love toward me; you have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol. (诗30:3; 诗86:5; 诗88:6; 结26:20)14O God, insolent men have risen up against me; a band of ruthless men seeks my life, and they do not set you before them. (诗54:3)15But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. (民14:18; 尼9:17; 诗62:12; 诗86:5; 诗111:4; 诗112:4; 拿4:2)16Turn to me and be gracious to me; give your strength to your servant, and save the son of your maidservant. (诗25:16; 诗116:16)17Show me a sign of your favor, that those who hate me may see and be put to shame because you, Lord, have helped me and comforted me. (士6:17; 尼5:19; 尼13:31)
