1A Psalm of David. Unto Thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.
2O my God, in Thee have I trusted, let me not be ashamed; let not mine enemies triumph over me.
3Yea, none that wait for Thee shall be ashamed; they shall be ashamed that deal treacherously without cause.
4Show me Thy ways, O LORD; teach me Thy paths.
5Guide me in Thy truth, and teach me; for Thou art the God of my salvation; for Thee do I wait all the day.
6Remember, O LORD, Thy compassions and Thy mercies; for they have been from of old.
7Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; according to Thy mercy remember Thou me, for Thy goodness' sake, O LORD.
8Good and upright is the LORD; therefore doth He instruct sinners in the way.
9He guideth The humble in justice; and He teacheth the humble His way.
10All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep His covenant and His testimonies.
11For Thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity, for it is great.
12What man is he that feareth the LORD? him will He instruct in the way that He should choose.
13His soul shall abide in prosperity; and his seed shall inherit the land.
14The counsel of the LORD is with them that fear Him; and His covenant, to make them know it.
15Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for He will bring forth my feet out of the net.
16Turn Thee unto me, and be gracious unto me; for I am solitary and afflicted.
17The troubles of my heart are enlarged; O bring Thou me out of my distresses.
18See mine affliction and my travail; and forgive all my sins.
19Consider how many are mine enemies, and the cruel hatred wherewith they hate me.
20O keep my soul, and deliver me; let me not be ashamed, for I have taken refuge in Thee.
21Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, because I wait for Thee.
22Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
