1 UNTO thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul. | |
2 O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me. | |
3 Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause. | |
4 Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths. | |
5 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day. | |
6 Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old. | |
7 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O LORD. | |
8 Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way. | |
9 The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way. | |
10 All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. | |
11 For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great. | |
12 What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose. | |
13 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth. | |
14 The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant. | |
15 Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net. | |
16 Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted. | |
17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses. | |
18 Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins. | |
19 Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred. | |
20 O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee. | |
21 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee. | |
22 Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles. | |
