And give heed to the voice of my supplications!

For You will answer me.

And will glorify Your name forever.

And #86:14 Or an assemblya band of ruthless men have sought my #86:14 Lit soullife,
And they have not set You before them.

Slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness and #86:15 Or faithfulnesstruth.

That those who hate me may see it and be ashamed,
Because You, O Yahweh, have helped me and comforted me.
