1Bow down, O Yahweh, thine ear—answer me, For, oppressed and needy, am I;
2O guard my life, For, a man of lovingkindness, am I,—Save thy servant, O thou my God, [Thy servant] who trusteth in thee;
3Show me favour, O My Lord, For, unto thee, do I cry, all the day;
4Rejoice the soul of thy servant, For, unto thee, O My Lord, my soul, do I lift.
5For, thou, O My Lord, art good and forgiving, And abundant in lovingkindness, to all who call upon thee.
6Give ear, O Yahweh, unto my prayer, And attend unto the voice of my supplications.
7In the day of my distress, will I call upon thee, For thou wilt answer me.
8There is none like unto thee, among the gods, O My Lord, And nothing like thy works.
9All nations whom thou hast made, Shall come in and bow down before thee, O My Lord, That they may glorify thy Name.
10For great thou art, and doest wondrous things, Thou, O God, of thyself alone.
11Point out to me, O Yahweh, thy way, I will walk steadfastly in thy truth, My heart will rejoice to revere thy Name.
12I will give thee thanks, Adonay, my God, with all my heart, And will glorify thy Name unto times age-abiding.
13For, thy lovingkindness, is great towards me, And thou hast rescued my soul from Hades beneath.
14O God, the insolent, have arisen against me, And, the assembly of tyrants, have sought my life, And have not set thee before them.
15But, thou, O My Lord, art, A God of compassion and favour, Slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness a faithfulness.
16Turn thou unto me, and show me favour,—Give thy strength to thy servant, And save the son of thy handmaid.
17Perform with me a token for good,—That they who hate me may see and be ashamed, In that, thou, Yahweh, hast helped me and comforted me.
