1 U nto thee, O Jehovah, do I lift up my soul.

2 O my God, in thee have I trusted, Let me not be put to shame; Let not mine enemies triumph over me.

3 Y ea, none that wait for thee shall be put to shame: They shall be put to shame that deal treacherously without cause.

4 S how me thy ways, O Jehovah; Teach me thy paths.

5 G uide me in thy truth, and teach me; For thou art the God of my salvation; For thee do I wait all the day.

6 R emember, O Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindness; For they have been ever of old.

7 R emember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: According to thy lovingkindness remember thou me, For thy goodness' sake, O Jehovah.

8 G ood and upright is Jehovah: Therefore will he instruct sinners in the way.

9 T he meek will he guide in justice; And the meek will he teach his way.

10 A ll the paths of Jehovah are lovingkindness and truth Unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

11 F or thy name's sake, O Jehovah, Pardon mine iniquity, for it is great.

12 W hat man is he that feareth Jehovah? Him shall he instruct in the way that he shall choose.

13 H is soul shall dwell at ease; And his seed shall inherit the land.

14 T he friendship of Jehovah is with them that fear him; And he will show them his covenant.

15 M ine eyes are ever toward Jehovah; For he will pluck my feet out of the net.

16 T urn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; For I am desolate and afflicted.

17 T he troubles of my heart are enlarged: Oh bring thou me out of my distresses.

18 C onsider mine affliction and my travail; And forgive all my sins.

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

20 O h keep my soul, and deliver me: Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in thee.

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

22 R edeem Israel, O God, Out all of his troubles.
