86.2 :Keep my soul, for I am godly;
 * O Thou my God, save Thy servant that trusteth in Thee.
 * Be gracious unto me, O Lord;
 * For unto Thee do I cry all the day.
 * Rejoice the soul of Thy servant;
 * For unto Thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
 * For Thou, Lord, art good, and ready to pardon,
 * And plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon Thee.


 * Give ear, O, unto my prayer;
 * And attend unto the voice of my supplications.
 * In the day of my trouble I call upon Thee;
 * For Thou wilt answer me.
 * There is none like unto Thee among the gods, O Lord,
 * And there are no works like Thine.
 * All nations whom Thou hast made shall come and prostrate themselves before Thee, O Lord;
 * And they shall glorify Thy name.
 * For Thou art great, and doest wondrous things;
 * Thou art God alone.


 * Teach me, O, Thy way, that I may walk in Thy truth;
 * Make one my heart to fear Thy name.
 * I will thank Thee, O Lord my God, with my whole heart;
 * And I will glorify Thy name for evermore.
 * For great is Thy mercy toward me;
 * And Thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest nether-world.


 * O God, the proud are risen up against me,
 * And the company of violent men have sought after my soul,
 * And have not set Thee before them.
 * But Thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion and gracious,
 * Slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy and truth.
 * O turn unto me, and be gracious unto me;
 * Give Thy strength unto Thy servant,
 * And save the son of Thy handmaid.
 * Work in my behalf a sign for good;
 * That they that hate me may see it, and be put to shame,
 * Because Thou,, hast helped me, and comforted me.

A Psalm of the sons of Korah; a Song.


 * His foundation is in the holy mountains.
 * The loveth the gates of Zion
 * More than all the dwellings of Jacob.
 * Glorious things are spoken of Thee,
 * O city of God.
 * 'I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon as among them that know Me;
 * Behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia;
 * This one was born there.'
 * But of Zion it shall be said: 'This man and that was born in her;
 * And the Most High Himself doth establish her.'
 * The shall count in the register of the peoples:
 * 'This one was born there.'
 * And whether they sing or dance,
 * All my thoughts are in Thee.

 * What time I cry in the night before Thee,
