1 To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul.
2 My God, in you I have trusted; do not let me be shamed; do not let my enemies triumph over me.
3 Yes, none who hope in you will be shamed; those who act treacherously for nothing will be shamed.
4 Your ways, O LORD, make known to me; your paths, teach me.
5 Make me walk in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; on you I wait all day.
6 Remember your compassion, O LORD, and your steadfast love, for they are from everlasting.
7 The sins of my youth and my transgressions do not remember; according to your steadfast love remember me, because of your goodness, O LORD.
8 The LORD is good and upright; that is why he shows sinners the way.
9 He guides the humble in justice and teaches the humble his way.
10 Every path of the LORD is steadfast love and truth for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.
11 For the sake of your name, O LORD, forgive my iniquity, for it is great.
12 Who then is the man who fears the LORD? He will teach him the way he should choose.
13 His soul will lodge in good things, and his seed will possess the land.
14 The intimate counsel of the LORD belongs to those who fear him, and his covenant, to make it known to them.
15 My eyes are continually on the LORD, for he will pull my feet from the net.
16 Turn toward me and show me grace, for I am lonely and afflicted.
17 The distresses of my heart have widened; lead me out of my anguish.
18 See my affliction and my trouble, and take away all my sins.
19 See my enemies, for they are many, and they hate me with violent hatred.
20 Keep my soul and rescue me; let me not be shamed, for I have taken refuge in you.
21 Let integrity and uprightness watch over me, for I hope in you.
22 Ransom Israel, O God, from all his distresses.
