1To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul.*

2O my God, in you I trust;

do not let me be put to shame;

do not let my enemies exult over me.*

3Do not let those who wait for you be put to shame;

let them be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous.*

4Make me to know your ways, O Lord;

teach me your paths.*

5Lead me in your truth and teach me,

for you are the God of my salvation;

for you I wait all day long.*

6Be mindful of your mercy, O Lord, and of your steadfast love,

for they have been from of old.*

7Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions;

according to your steadfast love remember me,

for the sake of your goodness, O Lord!*

8Good and upright is the Lord;

therefore he instructs sinners in the way.*

9He leads the humble in what is right

and teaches the humble his way.*

10All the paths of the Lord are steadfast love and faithfulness,

for those who keep his covenant and his decrees.*

11For your name’s sake, O Lord,

pardon my guilt, for it is great.*

12Who are they who fear the Lord?

He will teach them the way that they should choose.

13They will abide in prosperity,

and their children shall possess the land.*

14The friendship of the Lord is for those who fear him,

and he makes his covenant known to them.*

15My eyes are ever toward the Lord,

for he will pluck my feet out of the net.*

16Turn to me and be gracious to me,

for I am lonely and afflicted.*

17Relieve the troubles of my heart,

and bring meu out of my distress.*

18Consider my affliction and my trouble,

and forgive all my sins.*

19Consider how many are my foes

and with what violent hatred they hate me.*

20O guard my life and deliver me;

do not let me be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.

21May integrity and uprightness preserve me,

for I wait for you.*

22Redeem Israel, O God,

out of all its troubles.*
