- 1To you, the Lord, do I lift up my soul.
- 2My God, I have trusted in you. Don’t let me be shamed. Don’t let my enemies triumph over me.
- 3Yes, no one who waits for you shall be shamed. They shall be shamed who deal treacherously without cause.
- 4Show me your ways, the Lord. Teach me your paths.
- 5Guide me in your truth, and teach me, For you are the God of my salvation, I wait for you all day long.
- 6The Lord, remember your tender mercies and your loving kindness, for they are from old times.
- 7Don’t remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions. Remember me according to your loving kindness, for your goodness’ sake, the Lord.
- 8Good and upright is the Lord, therefore he will instruct sinners in the way.
- 9He will guide the humble in justice. He will teach the humble his way.
- 10All the paths of the Lord are loving kindness and truth to such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
- 11For your name’s sake, the Lord, pardon my iniquity, for it is great.
- 12What man is he who fears the Lord? He shall instruct him in the way that he shall choose.
- 13His soul shall dwell at ease. His seed shall inherit the land.
- 14The friendship of the Lord is with those who fear him. He will show them his covenant.
- 15My eyes are ever on the Lord, for he will pluck my feet out of the net.
- 16Turn to me, and have mercy on me, for I am desolate and afflicted.
- 17The troubles of my heart are enlarged. Oh bring me out of my distresses.
- 18Consider my affliction and my travail. Forgive all my sins.
- 19Consider my enemies, for they are many. They hate me with cruel hatred.
- 20Oh keep my soul, and deliver me. Let me not be disappointed, for I take refuge in you.
- 21Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you.
- 22Redeem Israel, God, out all of his troubles.
