Hear me, Lord, and answer me,    for I am poor and needy.2 Guard my life, for I am faithful to you;    save your servant who trusts in you.You are my God; 3 have mercy on me, Lord,    for I call to you all day long.4 Bring joy to your servant, Lord,    for I put my trust in you.

May my cry come before you, Lord;    give me understanding according to your word.170 May my supplication come before you;    deliver me according to your promise.171 May my lips overflow with praise,    for you teach me your decrees.

Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.    From the house of the Lord we bless you.27 The Lord is God,    and he has made his light shine on us.With boughs in hand, join in the festal procession    up to the horns of the altar.

Let those who fear the Lord say:    “His love endures forever.” 5 When hard pressed, I cried to the Lord;    he brought me into a spacious place.6 The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid.    What can mere mortals do to me?7 The Lord is with me; he is my helper.    I look in triumph on my enemies.

Look on me and answer, Lord my God.    Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death,4 and my enemy will say, “I have overcome him,”    and my foes will rejoice when I fall. 5 But I trust in your unfailing love;    my heart rejoices in your salvation. Continue to pray this Psalm…
