1. Hear, Yahweh, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.
2. Preserve my soul, for I am godly. You, my God, save your servant who trusts in you.
3. Be merciful to me, Lord, for I call to you all day long.
4. Bring joy to the soul of your servant, for to you, Lord, do I lift up my soul.
5. For you, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive; abundant in loving kindness to all those who call on you.
6. Hear, Yahweh, my prayer. Listen to the voice of my petitions.
7. In the day of my trouble I will call on you, for you will answer me.
8. There is no one like you among the gods, Lord, nor any deeds like your deeds.
