Condescend to hear me, Lord,
for I lack so many things.
Preserve my life,
for I am set apart for you -- you are my God.
Save your servant who trusts in you!
Show mercy to me, Lord,
for I cry aloud to you all day long.
Make glad the soul of your servant,
for I lift up my soul to you.
For you, Lord, are good.
For you, Lord, are ready to forgive.
For you, Lord, are rich in mercy to all who call upon you.
Give ear, Lord, to my prayer,
and listen to my petitions.
In the day of my distress I will call to you,
for you will answer me.
Among the great powers there is none like you, Lord, nor are any works like yours.
All nations -- whom you have made! -- shall come and worship in your presence, Lord,
And shall call your name glorious!
For you are powerful, and do incredible things -- you alone are God!
Show me your path, Lord -- I will walk in your truth.
Make my heart unified, to fear your name.
I will praise you, O Lord my God, with my entire heart,
and I will glorify your name forever!
For you have been merciful to me,
and you have brought out my soul from deep subterranean darkness.
O God, prideful thoughts have risen within me,
and a host of destructive sins have sought to destroy me -- they do not consider you!
But you, Lord, are a God full of compassion, and full of grace,
long-suffering and overflowing in mercy and truth.
Turn to me and have mercy on me!
Give your strength to your servant, and save the son of your maidservant.
Show me a sign of your goodwill towards me, so that I would be ashamed of my rebellious thoughts,
because you, Lord, have have helped me and comforted me!
