| 1A Psalm of David. To You, O LORD, I lift up my soul. | 1LORD, I appeal to you. |
| 2O my God, in You I trust, Do not let me be ashamed; Do not let my enemies exult over me. | 2My God, I trust in you. Do not let me be disgraced; do not let my enemies gloat over me. |
| 3Indeed, none of those who wait for You will be ashamed; Those who deal treacherously without cause will be ashamed. | 3No one who waits for you will be disgraced; those who act treacherously without cause will be disgraced. |
| 4Make me know Your ways, O LORD; Teach me Your paths. | 4Make your ways known to me, LORD; teach me your paths. |
| 5Lead me in Your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my salvation; For You I wait all the day. | 5Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; I wait for you all day long. |
| 6Remember, O LORD, Your compassion and Your lovingkindnesses, For they have been from of old. | 6Remember, LORD, your compassion and your faithful love, for they have existed from antiquity. |
| 7Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions; According to Your lovingkindness remember me, For Your goodness' sake, O LORD. | 7Do not remember the sins of my youth or my acts of rebellion; in keeping with your faithful love, remember me because of your goodness, LORD. |
| 8Good and upright is the LORD; Therefore He instructs sinners in the way. | 8The LORD is good and upright; therefore he shows sinners the way. |
| 9He leads the humble in justice, And He teaches the humble His way. | 9He leads the humble in what is right and teaches them his way. |
| 10All the paths of the LORD are lovingkindness and truth To those who keep His covenant and His testimonies. | 10All the LORD's ways show faithful love and truth to those who keep his covenant and decrees. |
| 11For Your name's sake, O LORD, Pardon my iniquity, for it is great. | 11LORD, for the sake of your name, forgive my iniquity, for it is immense. |
| 12Who is the man who fears the LORD? He will instruct him in the way he should choose. | 12Who is this person who fears the LORD? He will show him the way he should choose. |
| 13His soul will abide in prosperity, And his descendants will inherit the land. | 13He will live a good life, and his descendants will inherit the land. |
| 14The secret of the LORD is for those who fear Him, And He will make them know His covenant. | 14The secret counsel of the LORD is for those who fear him, and he reveals his covenant to them. |
| 15My eyes are continually toward the LORD, For He will pluck my feet out of the net. | 15My eyes are always on the LORD, for he will pull my feet out of the net. |
| 16Turn to me and be gracious to me, For I am lonely and afflicted. | 16Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am alone and afflicted. |
| 17The troubles of my heart are enlarged; Bring me out of my distresses. | 17The distresses of my heart increase; bring me out of my sufferings. |
| 18Look upon my affliction and my trouble, And forgive all my sins. | 18Consider my affliction and trouble, and forgive all my sins. |
| 19Look upon my enemies, for they are many, And they hate me with violent hatred. | 19Consider my enemies; they are numerous, and they hate me violently. |
| 20Guard my soul and deliver me; Do not let me be ashamed, for I take refuge in You. | 20Guard me and rescue me; do not let me be put to shame, for I take refuge in you. |
| 21Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, For I wait for You. | 21May integrity and what is right watch over me, for I wait for you. |
| 22Redeem Israel, O God, Out of all his troubles. | 22God, redeem Israel, from all its distresses. |
