{Psa 61-62, 64-70, 86, 101 ^**}

    ^86:1 Bow down your ear, O Jehovah, and answer me, because I am poor and needy. ^86:2 Preserve my soul, because I am devout. O you my God, save your servant who trusts in you.

    ^86:3 Be merciful to me, O Lord, because I cry all the day long to you. ^86:4 Rejoice the soul of your servant, because, I lift up my soul to you, O Lord.

    ^86:5 Because you, Lord, are good and ready to forgive and abundant in loving kindness to all those who call upon you.

    ^86:6 Listen, O Jehovah, to my prayer and listen to the voice of my supplications. ^86:7 I will call upon you in the day of my trouble, because you will answer me.

    ^86:8 There is none like you among the gods, O Lord, nor like your works. ^86:9 All nations whom you have made will come and worship before you, O Lord and they will glorify your name.

    ^86:10 Because you are great and do wondrous things. You alone are God.

    ^86:11 Teach me your way, O Jehovah, I will walk in your truth. Unite my heart to fear your name. ^86:12I will praise you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart and I will glorify your name everlasting.

    ^86:13 Because great is your loving kindness toward me and you have delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol.

    ^86:14 O God, the proud have risen up against me and a company of violent men have sought after my soul and have not set you before them.

    ^86:15 But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abundant in loving kindness and truth. ^86:16 O turn to me and have mercy upon me. Give your strength to your servant and save the son of your handmaid.

    ^86:17 Show me a sign for good, that those who hate me may see it and be put to shame, because you, Jehovah, have helped me and comforted me.
