Bring joy to the soul of your servant, for to you, Lord, do I lift up my soul.

For you, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, abundant in loving kindness to all those who call on you.

v6

Hear, Yahweh, my prayer. Listen to the voice of my petitions.

v7

In the day of my trouble I will call on you, for you will answer me.

Turn to me, and have mercy on me! Give your strength to your servant. Save the son of your servant.
