The Lord Does Not Turn Away My Prayer Nor His Mercy From Me

Psalm 69:16   Hear and answer me, O Lord, for Your loving-kindness is sweet and comforting; according to Your plenteous tender mercy and steadfast love turn to me.

Psalm 86
Incline Your ear, O Lord, and answer me,
for I am poor and distressed, needy and desiring.

Preserve my life, for I am godly and dedicated;
O my God, save Your servant, for I trust in You
[leaning and believing on You, committing all and
confidently looking to You, without fear or doubt].

Be merciful and gracious to me, O Lord,
for to You do I cry all the day.
Make me, Your servant, to rejoice, O Lord,
for to You do I lift myself up.

For You, O Lord, are good, and ready to forgive
[our trespasses, sending them away, letting them go
completely and forever]; and You are abundant in mercy
and loving-kindness to all those who call upon You.

Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer;
and listen to the cry of my supplications.
In the day of my trouble I will call on You,
for You will answer me.

There is none like unto You among the gods,
O Lord, neither are their works like unto Yours.
All nations whom You have made shall come
and fall down before You, O Lord;
and they shall glorify Your name.

For You are great and work wonders!
You alone are God.
Teach me Your way, O Lord,
that I may walk and live in Your truth;
direct and unite my heart [solely, reverently]
to fear and honor Your name.

I will confess and praise You, O Lord my God,
with my whole (united) heart;
and I will glorify Your name forevermore.
For great is Your mercy and loving-kindness toward me;
and You have delivered me from the depths of Sheol
[from the exceeding depths of affliction].

O God, the proud and insolent are risen against me;
a rabble of violent and ruthless men
has sought and demanded my life,
and they have not set You before them.

But You, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious,
slow to anger and abounding in mercy
and loving-kindness and truth.

O turn to me and have mercy and be gracious to me;
grant strength (might and inflexibility to temptation)
to Your servant and save the son of Your handmaiden.

Show me a sign of [Your evident] goodwill and favor,
that those who hate me may see it and be put to shame,
because You, Lord, [will show Your approval of me when You]
help and comfort me.

Psalm 90:14   O satisfy us with Your mercy and loving-kindness in the morning [now, before we are older], that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

Psalm 92
It is a good and delightful thing to give thanks to the Lord,
to sing praises [with musical accompaniment] to Your name, O Most High,

To show forth Your loving-kindness in the morning
and Your faithfulness by night,
With an instrument of ten strings and with the lute,
with a solemn sound upon the lyre.

For You, O Lord, have made me glad by Your works;
at the deeds of Your hands I joyfully sing.

How great are Your doings, O Lord!
Your thoughts are very deep.

A man in his rude and uncultivated state knows not,
neither does a [self-confident] fool understand this:
That though the wicked spring up like grass
and all evildoers flourish,
they are doomed to be destroyed forever.

But You, Lord, are on high forever.
For behold, Your adversaries, O Lord, for behold,
Your enemies shall perish;
all the evildoers shall be scattered.

But my horn (emblem of excessive strength and stately grace)
You have exalted like that of a wild ox;
I am anointed with fresh oil.

My eye looks upon those who lie in wait for me;
my ears hear the evildoers that rise up against me.

The [uncompromisingly] righteous shall flourish like the palm tree
[be long-lived, stately, upright, useful, and fruitful];
they shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon
[majestic, stable, durable, and incorruptible].
Planted in the house of the Lord,
they shall flourish in the courts of our God.

[Growing in grace] they shall still bring forth fruit in old age;
they shall be full of sap [of spiritual vitality]
and [rich in the] verdure [of trust, love, and contentment].

[They are living memorials] to show that the Lord is upright
and faithful to His promises;

He is my Rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
