Psalms 86:14-17

Psalms 86

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

14The arrogant rise against me, O God; a band of ruthless men seeks my life; they have no regard for You.

15But You, O Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion and faithfulness.

16Turn to me and have mercy; grant Your strength to Your servant; save the son of Your maidservant.

17Show me a sign of Your goodness, that my enemies may see and be ashamed; for You, O LORD, have helped me and comforted me.
