- 1[A Prayer of David.] Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.תְּפִלָּ֗ה לְדָ֫וִ֥ד הַטֵּֽה יְהוָ֣ה אָזְנְךָ֣ עֲנֵ֑נִי כִּֽי עָנִ֖י וְאֶבְי֣וֹן אָֽנִי
- 2Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.שָֽׁמְרָ֣ה נַפְשִׁי֮ כִּֽי חָסִ֪יד אָ֥נִי הוֹשַׁ֣ע עַ֭בְדְּךָ אַתָּ֣ה אֱלֹהַ֑י הַבּוֹטֵ֥חַ אֵלֶֽיךָ
- 3Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily.חָנֵּ֥נִי אֲדֹנָ֑י כִּ֥י אֵלֶ֥יךָ אֶ֝קְרָ֗א כָּל הַיּֽוֹם
- 4Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.שַׂ֭מֵּחַ נֶ֣פֶשׁ עַבְדֶּ֑ךָ כִּ֥י אֵלֶ֥יךָ אֲ֝דֹנָ֗י נַפְשִׁ֥י אֶשָּֽׂא
- 5For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.כִּֽי אַתָּ֣ה אֲ֭דֹנָי ט֣וֹב וְסַלָּ֑ח וְרַב חֶ֝֗סֶד לְכָל קֹרְאֶֽיךָ
- 6Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.הַאֲזִ֣ינָה יְ֭הוָה תְּפִלָּתִ֑י וְ֝הַקְשִׁ֗יבָה בְּק֣וֹל תַּחֲנוּנוֹתָֽי
- 7In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.בְּי֣וֹם צָ֭רָתִ֥י אֶקְרָאֶ֗ךָּ כִּ֣י תַעֲנֵֽנִי
- 8Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; neither are there any works like unto thy works.אֵין כָּמ֖וֹךָ בָאֱלֹהִ֥ים אֲדֹנָ֗י וְאֵ֣ין כְּֽמַעֲשֶֽׂיךָ
- 9All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.כָּל גּוֹיִ֤ם אֲשֶׁ֥ר עָשִׂ֗יתָ יָב֤וֹאוּ וְיִשְׁתַּחֲו֣וּ לְפָנֶ֣יךָ אֲדֹנָ֑י וִֽיכַבְּד֣וּ לִשְׁמֶֽךָ
- 10For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.כִּֽי גָד֣וֹל אַ֭תָּה וְעֹשֵׂ֣ה נִפְלָא֑וֹת אַתָּ֖ה אֱלֹהִ֣ים לְבַדֶּֽךָ
- 11Teach me thy way, O LORD; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.ה֘וֹרֵ֤נִי יְהוָ֨ה דַּרְכֶּ֗ךָ אֲהַלֵּ֥ךְ בַּאֲמִתֶּ֑ךָ יַחֵ֥ד לְ֝בָבִ֗י לְיִרְאָ֥ה שְׁמֶֽךָ
- 12I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.אוֹדְךָ֤ אֲדֹנָ֣י אֱ֭לֹהַי בְּכָל לְבָבִ֑י וַאֲכַבְּדָ֖ה שִׁמְךָ֣ לְעוֹלָֽם
- 13For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.כִּֽי חַ֭סְדְּךָ גָּד֣וֹל עָלָ֑י וְהִצַּ֥לְתָּ נַ֝פְשִׁ֗י מִשְּׁא֥וֹל תַּחְתִּיָּֽה
- 14O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul; and have not set thee before them.אֱלֹהִ֤ים זֵ֘דִ֤ים קָֽמוּ עָלַ֗י וַעֲדַ֣ת עָ֭רִיצִים בִּקְשׁ֣וּ נַפְשִׁ֑י וְלֹ֖א שָׂמ֣וּךָ לְנֶגְדָּֽם
- 15But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.וְאַתָּ֣ה אֲ֭דֹנָי אֵל רַח֣וּם וְחַנּ֑וּן אֶ֥רֶךְ אַ֝פַּ֗יִם וְרַב חֶ֥סֶד וֶאֱמֶֽת
- 16O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.פְּנֵ֥ה אֵלַ֗י וְחָ֫נֵּ֥נִי תְּנָֽה עֻזְּךָ֥ לְעַבְדֶּ֑ךָ וְ֝הוֹשִׁ֗יעָה לְבֶן אֲמָתֶֽךָ
- 17Shew me a token for good; that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed: because thou, LORD, hast holpen me, and comforted me.עֲשֵֽׂה עִמִּ֥י א֗וֹת לְט֫וֹבָ֥ה וְיִרְא֣וּ שֹׂנְאַ֣י וְיֵבֹ֑שׁוּ כִּֽי אַתָּ֥ה יְ֝הוָ֗ה עֲזַרְתַּ֥נִי וְנִחַמְתָּֽנִי

Hebrew verse gematria
YHWSA calculates these totals directly from every consonant in the tagged Hebrew source line using the Carlo Suarès letter-number system; vowel points and cantillation marks do not add values. The totals are not reverse-mapped from English. A matching number is a comparison to investigate, not proof that two passages mean the same thing.
