picture

1 T o You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.

2 O my God, I trust in You; Let me not be ashamed; Let not my enemies triumph over me.

3 I ndeed, let no one who waits on You be ashamed; Let those be ashamed who deal treacherously without cause.

4 S how me Your ways, O Lord; Teach me Your paths.

5 L ead me in Your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my salvation; On You I wait all the day.

6 R emember, O Lord, Your tender mercies and Your lovingkindnesses, For they are from of old.

7 D o not remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; According to Your mercy remember me, For Your goodness’ sake, O Lord.

8 G ood and upright is the Lord; Therefore He teaches sinners in the way.

9 T he humble He guides in justice, And the humble He teaches His way.

10 A ll the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth, To such as keep His covenant and His testimonies.

11 F or Your name’s sake, O Lord, Pardon my iniquity, for it is great.

12 W ho is the man that fears the Lord ? Him shall He teach in the way He chooses.

13 H e himself shall dwell in prosperity, And his descendants shall inherit the earth.

14 T he secret of the Lord is with those who fear Him, And He will show them His covenant.

15 M y eyes are ever toward the Lord, For He shall pluck my feet out of the net.

16 T urn Yourself to me, and have mercy on me, For I am desolate and afflicted.

17 T he troubles of my heart have enlarged; Bring me out of my distresses!

18 L ook on my affliction and my pain, And forgive all my sins.

19 C onsider my enemies, for they are many; And they hate me with cruel hatred.

20 K eep my soul, and deliver me; Let me not be ashamed, for I put my trust in You.

21 L et integrity and uprightness preserve me, For I wait for You.

22 R edeem Israel, O God, Out of all their troubles!
