'Pray' in the Bible

Heed the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God,For to You I pray.

Therefore, let everyone who is godly pray to You [for forgiveness] in a time when You [are near and] may be found;Surely when the great waters [of trial and distressing times] overflow they will not reach [the spirit in] him.

For I pray, “May they not rejoice over me,Who, when my foot slips, would boast against me.”

O may Your lovingkindness and graciousness comfort me,According to Your word (promise) to Your servant.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:“May they prosper who love you [holy city].
