1A Psalm of David. To You, O LORD, I lift up my soul. | 1Of David. In you, LORD my God, I put my trust. |
2O my God, in You I trust, Do not let me be ashamed; Do not let my enemies exult over me. | 2I trust in you; do not let me be put to shame, nor let my enemies triumph 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 hopes in you will ever be put to shame, but shame will come on those who are treacherous without cause. |
4Make me know Your ways, O LORD; Teach me Your paths. | 4Show me your ways, 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 God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. |
6Remember, O LORD, Your compassion and Your lovingkindnesses, For they have been from of old. | 6Remember, LORD, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old. |
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 and my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me, for you, LORD, are good. |
8Good and upright is the LORD; Therefore He instructs sinners in the way. | 8Good and upright is the LORD; therefore he instructs sinners in his ways. |
9He leads the humble in justice, And He teaches the humble His way. | 9He guides 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 ways of the LORD are loving and faithful toward those who keep the demands of his covenant. |
11For Your name's sake, O LORD, Pardon my iniquity, for it is great. | 11For the sake of your name, LORD, forgive my iniquity, though it is great. |
12Who is the man who fears the LORD? He will instruct him in the way he should choose. | 12Who, then, are those who fear the LORD? He will instruct them in the ways they should choose. |
13His soul will abide in prosperity, And his descendants will inherit the land. | 13They will spend their days in prosperity, and their 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 LORD confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them. |
15My eyes are continually toward the LORD, For He will pluck my feet out of the net. | 15My eyes are ever on the LORD, for only he will release my feet from the snare. |
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 lonely and afflicted. |
17The troubles of my heart are enlarged; Bring me out of my distresses. | 17Relieve the troubles of my heart and free me from my anguish. |
18Look upon my affliction and my trouble, And forgive all my sins. | 18Look on my affliction and my distress and take away all my sins. |
19Look upon my enemies, for they are many, And they hate me with violent hatred. | 19See how numerous are my enemies and how fiercely they hate me! |
20Guard my soul and deliver me; Do not let me be ashamed, for I take refuge in You. | 20Guard my life 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 uprightness protect me, because my hope, LORD, is in you. |
22Redeem Israel, O God, Out of all his troubles. | 22Deliver Israel, O God, from all their troubles! |
