1: To you, O Lord, my soul is lifted up. 2: O my God, I have put my faith in you, let me not be shamed; let not my haters be glorying over me. 3: Let no servant of yours be put to shame; may those be shamed who are false without cause. 4: Make your steps clear to me, O Lord; give me knowledge of your ways. 5: Be my guide and teacher in the true way; for you are the God of my salvation; I am waiting for your word all the day. 6: O Lord, keep in mind your pity and your mercies; for they have been from the earliest times. 7: Do not keep in mind my sins when I was young, or my wrongdoing: let your memory of me be full of mercy, O Lord, because of your righteousness. 8: Good and upright is the Lord: so he will be the teacher of sinners in the way. 9: He will be an upright guide to the poor in spirit: he will make his way clear to them. 10: All the ways of the Lord are mercy and good faith for those who keep his agreement and his witness. 11: Because of your name, O Lord, let me have forgiveness for my sin, which is very great. 12: If a man has the fear of the Lord, the Lord will be his teacher in the way of his pleasure. 13: His soul will be full of good things, and his seed will have the earth for its heritage. 14: The secret of the Lord is with those in whose hearts is the fear of him; he will make his agreement clear to them. 15: My eyes are turned to the Lord at all times; for he will take my feet out of the net. 16: Be turned to me, and have mercy on me; for I am troubled and have no helper. 17: The troubles of my heart are increased: O take me out of my sorrows. 18: Give thought to my grief and my pain; and take away all my sins. 19: See how those who are against me are increased, for bitter is their hate of me. 20: O keep my soul, and take me out of danger: let me not be shamed, for I have put my faith in you. 21: For my clean and upright ways keep me safe, because my hope is in you. 22: Give Israel salvation, O God, out of all his troubles.
