Be merciful unto me, O Lord:

For I cry unto thee daily.

Rejoice the soul of thy servant:

For unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive;

And plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.

Give ear, O Lord, unto my prayer;

And attend to the voice of my supplications.

For thou wilt answer me.

Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord;

Neither are there any works like unto thy works.
