I have called upon you, for you will hear me, O God: incline your ear unto me, and hear my speech.
Read Chapter 17
Augustine of Hippo
AD 430
6. "I have cried out, for Thou hast heard Me, O God" (ver. 6). With a free and strong effort have I directed My prayers unto Thee: for that I might have this power, Thou hast heard Me when praying more weakly. "Incline Thine ear to Me, and hear My words." Let not Thy hearing forsake My humiliation.
