Tempted, but trusting

1
A prayer of David. Listen, Yahweh, and answer me, for I am poor and oppressed.
2
Protect me, for I am loyal; my God, save your servant who trusts in you.
3
Be merciful to me, Lord, for I cry out to you all day long.
4
Make your servant glad, for to you, Lord, I pray.
5
You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and you show great mercy to all those who cry out to you.
6
Yahweh, listen to my prayer; hear the sound of my pleas.
7
In the day of my trouble I call on you, for you will answer me.
8
There is no one who compares to you among the gods, Lord. There are no deeds like your deeds.
9
All the nations that you have made will come and bow before you, Lord. They will honor your name.
10
For you are great and do wonderful things; you only are God.
11
Teach me your ways, Yahweh. Then I will walk in your truth. Unite my heart to reverence you.
12
Lord my God, I will praise you with my whole heart; I will glorify your name forever.
13
For great is your covenant faithfulness toward me; you have rescued my life from the depths of Sheol.
14
God, the arrogant have risen up against me. A gang of violent men seek my life. They have no regard for you.
15
But you, Lord, are a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger, and abundant in covenant faithfulness and trustworthiness.
16
Turn toward me and have mercy on me; give your strength to your servant; save the son of your servant woman.
17
Show me a sign of your favor. Then those who hate me will see it and be put to shame because you, Yahweh, have helped me and comforted me.
