1.
Of David. To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul;
|
|
2.
in you I trust, O my God. Do not let me be put to shame, nor let my enemies triumph over me.
|
|
3.
No one whose hope is in you will ever be put to shame, but they will be put to shame who are treacherous without excuse.
|
|
4.
Show me your ways, O LORD, teach me your paths;
|
|
5.
guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.
|
|
6.
Remember, O LORD, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old.
|
|
7.
Remember not the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me, for you are good, O LORD.
|
|
8.
Good and upright is the LORD; therefore he instructs sinners in his ways.
|
|
9.
He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way.
|
|
10.
All the ways of the LORD are loving and faithful for those who keep the demands of his covenant.
|
|
11.
For the sake of your name, O LORD, forgive my iniquity, though it is great.
|
|
12.
Who, then, is the man that fears the LORD? He will instruct him in the way chosen for him.
|
|
13.
He will spend his days in prosperity, and his descendants will inherit the land.
|
|
14.
The LORD confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them.
|
|
15.
My eyes are ever on the LORD, for only he will release my feet from the snare.
|
|
16.
Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted.
|
|
17.
The troubles of my heart have multiplied; free me from my anguish.
|
|
18.
Look upon my affliction and my distress and take away all my sins.
|
|
19.
See how my enemies have increased and how fiercely they hate me!
|
|
20.
Guard my life and rescue me; let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.
|
|
21.
May integrity and uprightness protect me, because my hope is in you.
|
|
22.
Redeem Israel, O God, from all their troubles!
