[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.
