The Koine Bible

A prayer of David. Incline your ear, Lord, and hear me, for I am poor and needy.

Keep my soul, for I am devout; save your servant, my God, who hopes in you

Have mercy on me, Lord, for I will cry out to you all the day.

Gladden the soul of your servant, for to you, Lord, I have lifted up my soul

For you, Lord, are good and gentle and very merciful to all who call on you

Give ear, Lord, to my prayer, and attend to the voice of my supplication.

In the day of my affliction I cried to you, because you heard me.

There is none like you among the gods, Lord, and there are no works like your works.

All the nations, as many as you made, will come and will worship before you, O Lord, and will glorify your name.

For you are great, and doing wonders; you are God alone, the great one.

Lead me, Lord, in your way, and I will walk in your truth; let my heart rejoice, to fear your name

I will give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with all my heart, and I will glorify your name forever

For your mercy is great upon me, and you delivered my soul from the lowest Hades.

O God, lawless men have risen up against me, and a gathering of mighty men has sought my soul, and they have not set you before them

And you, O Lord God, compassionate and merciful, longsuffering and very merciful, and true

Look upon me and have mercy on me; give your strength to your servant, and save the son of your maidservant.

Do a sign with me for good, and let those who hate me see it and be ashamed, because you, Lord, helped me and comforted me.
