Psalm 86:14-16

Good News Translation

¹⁴ Proud people are coming against me, O God;
    a cruel gang is trying to kill me—
    people who pay no attention to you.
¹⁵ But you, O Lord, are a merciful and loving God,
    always patient, always kind and faithful.
¹⁶ Turn to me and have mercy on me;
    strengthen me and save me,
    because I serve you just as my mother did.
