Psalm 116:2

New International Version

Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live.

See the chapter Copy

I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.

Turn your ear to me, come quickly to my rescue; be my rock of refuge, a strong fortress to save me.

Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.

Lord, you are the God who saves me; day and night I cry out to you.

Will they find delight in the Almighty? Will they call on God at all times?

Praise be to the Lord, for he has heard my cry for mercy.

Since you are my rock and my fortress, for the sake of your name lead and guide me.

You hurled me into the depths, into the very heart of the seas, and the currents swirled about me; all your waves and breakers swept over me.
