Listen to my cry for help, my God and king! I pray to you, O LORD;

you hear my voice in the morning; at sunrise I offer my prayer and wait for your answer.

Listen to me and answer me; I am worn out by my worries.

I am in trouble, God---listen to my prayer! I am afraid of my enemies---save my life!

Be merciful to me, O God, because of your constant love. Because of your great mercy wipe away my sins!

Answer me, LORD, in the goodness of your constant love; in your great compassion turn to me!

But my Sovereign LORD, help me as you have promised, and rescue me because of the goodness of your love.

I will tell of the LORD's unfailing love; I praise him for all he has done for us. He has richly blessed the people of Israel because of his mercy and constant love.

I lie defeated in the dust; revive me, as you have promised.

I want to obey your commands; give me new life, for you are righteous.

Defend my cause, and set me free; save me, as you have promised.

But your compassion, LORD, is great; show your mercy and save me!
