[1] I am a poor, helpless man. LORD, please listen to me and answer my prayer! [2] I am your follower, so please protect me. I am your servant, and you are my God. I trust in you, so save me. [3] My Lord, be kind to me. I have been praying to you all day. [4] My Lord, I put my life in your hands. I am your servant, so make me happy. [5] My Lord, you are good and merciful. You love all those who call to you for help. [6] LORD, hear my prayer. Listen to my cry for mercy. [7] I am praying to you in my time of trouble. I know you will answer me. [8] My Lord, there is no God like you. No one can do what you have done. [9] My Lord, you made everyone. I wish they all would come worship you and honor your name. [10] You are great and do amazing things. You and you alone are God. [11] LORD, teach me your ways, and I will live and obey your truths. Help me make worshiping your name the most important thing in my life. [12] My Lord God, I praise you with all my heart. I will honor your name forever! [13] You have such great love for me. You save me from the place of death. [14] Proud people are attacking me, God. A gang of cruel men is trying to kill me. They don't respect you. [15] My Lord, you are a kind and merciful God. You are patient, loyal, and full of love. [16] Show that you hear me and be kind to me. I am your servant, so give me strength. I am your slave, as my mother was, so save me! [17] LORD, show me a sign that you care for me. My enemies will see it and be disappointed, because you helped and comforted me.
