- 1
- {[A Psalm] of David.}
Unto thee, Jehovah, do I lift up my soul.
- 2
- My God, I confide in thee;
let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.
- 3
- Yea, none that wait on thee shall be ashamed: they shall be ashamed that deal treacherously without cause.
- 4
- Make me to know thy ways, O Jehovah;
teach me thy paths.
- 5
- Make me to walk in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation;
on thee do I wait all the day.
- 6
- Remember, Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy loving-kindnesses;
for they are from everlasting.
- 7
- Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions;
according to thy loving-kindness remember thou me, for thy goodness' sake, Jehovah.
- 8
- Good and upright is Jehovah;
therefore will he instruct 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 Jehovah are loving-kindness and truth for such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
- 11
- For thy name's sake, O Jehovah, thou wilt indeed pardon mine iniquity;
for it is great.
- 12
- What man is he that feareth Jehovah?
him will he instruct in the way [that] he should choose.
- 13
- His soul shall dwell in prosperity, and his seed shall inherit the earth.
- 14
- The secret of Jehovah is with them that fear him, that he may make known his covenant to them.
- 15
- Mine eyes are ever toward Jehovah;
for he will bring my feet out of the net.
- 16
- Turn toward me, and be gracious unto me;
for I am solitary and afflicted.
- 17
- The troubles of my heart are increased: bring me out of my distresses;
- 18
- Consider mine affliction and my travail, and forgive all my sins.
- 19
- Consider mine enemies, for they are many, and they hate me [with] cruel hatred.
- 20
- Keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed;
for I 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.
