Psalms 86:4-15 Good News Bible (GNB)

4. Make your servant glad, O Lord,because my prayers go up to you.

5. You are good to us and forgiving,full of constant love for all who pray to you.

6. Listen, Lord, to my prayer;hear my cries for help.

7. I call to you in times of trouble,because you answer my prayers.

8. There is no god like you, O Lord,not one has done what you have done.

9. All the nations that you have createdwill come and bow down to you;they will praise your greatness.

10. You are mighty and do wonderful things;you alone are God.

11. Teach me, Lord, what you want me to do,and I will obey you faithfully;teach me to serve you with complete devotion.

12. I will praise you with all my heart, O Lord my God;I will proclaim your greatness for ever.

13. How great is your constant love for me!You have saved me from the grave itself.

14. The proud are coming against me, O God;a cruel gang is trying to kill me —people who pay no attention to you.

15. But you, O Lord, are a merciful and loving God,always patient, always kind and faithful.
