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

2 O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.

3 Y ea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.

4 S hew me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths.

5 L ead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.

6 R emember, O Lord, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.

7 R emember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O Lord.

8 G ood and upright is the Lord: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.

9 T he meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.

10 A ll the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

11 F or thy name's sake, O Lord, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.

12 W hat man is he that feareth the Lord ? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.

13 H is soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.

14 T he secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.

15 M ine eyes are ever toward the Lord; for he shall 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: O bring thou me out of my distresses.

18 L ook upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.

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

20 O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.

21 L et integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.

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