Psalm 116:2

Revised Standard Version (RSV-CI)

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

See the chapter Copy

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

Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

And he told them a parable, to the effect that they ought always to pray and not lose heart.

Incline thy ear to me, rescue me speedily! Be thou a rock of refuge for me, a strong fortress to save me!

Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving;

O Lord, my God, I call for help by day; I cry out in the night before thee.

Will he take delight in the Almighty? Will he call upon God at all times?

Blessed be the Lord! for he has heard the voice of my supplications.

Yea, thou art my rock and my fortress; for thy name's sake lead me and guide me,

For thou didst cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and the flood was round about me; all thy waves and thy billows passed over me.
