1[i]A Psalm[/i] of David. To You, O LORD, I lift up my soul.1O LORD, I give my life to you.
2O my God, I trust in You; Let me not be ashamed; Let not my enemies triumph over me.2I trust in you, my God! Do not let me be disgraced, or let my enemies rejoice in my defeat.
3Indeed, let no one who waits on You be ashamed; Let those be ashamed who deal treacherously without cause.3No one who trusts in you will ever be disgraced, but disgrace comes to those who try to deceive others.
4Show me Your ways, O LORD; Teach me Your paths.4Show me the right path, O LORD; point out the road for me to follow.
5Lead me in Your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my salvation; On You I wait all the day.5Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you.
6Remember, O LORD, Your tender mercies and Your lovingkindnesses, For they are from of old.6Remember, O LORD, your compassion and unfailing love, which you have shown from long ages past.
7Do not remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; According to Your mercy remember me, For Your goodness’ sake, O LORD.7Do not remember the rebellious sins of my youth. Remember me in the light of your unfailing love, for you are merciful, O LORD.
8Good and upright is the LORD; Therefore He teaches sinners in the way.8The LORD is good and does what is right; he shows the proper path to those who go astray.
9The humble He guides in justice, And the humble He teaches His way.9He leads the humble in doing right, teaching them his way.
10All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth, To such as keep His covenant and His testimonies.10The LORD leads with unfailing love and faithfulness all who keep his covenant and obey his demands.
11For Your name’s sake, O LORD, Pardon my iniquity, for it is great.11For the honor of your name, O LORD, forgive my many, many sins.
12Who is the man that fears the LORD? Him shall He teach in the way He chooses.12Who are those who fear the LORD? He will show them the path they should choose.
13He himself shall dwell in prosperity, And his descendants shall inherit the earth.13They will live in prosperity, and their children will inherit the land.
14The secret of the LORD is with those who fear Him, And He will show them His covenant.14The LORD is a friend to those who fear him. He teaches them his covenant.
15My eyes are ever toward the LORD, For He shall pluck my feet out of the net.15My eyes are always on the LORD, for he rescues me from the traps of my enemies.
16Turn Yourself to me, and have mercy on me, For I am desolate and afflicted.16Turn to me and have mercy, for I am alone and in deep distress.
17The troubles of my heart have enlarged; Bring me out of my distresses!17My problems go from bad to worse. Oh, save me from them all!
18Look on my affliction and my pain, And forgive all my sins.18Feel my pain and see my trouble. Forgive all my sins.
19Consider my enemies, for they are many; And they hate me with cruel hatred.19See how many enemies I have and how viciously they hate me!
20Keep my soul, and deliver me; Let me not be ashamed, for I put my trust in You.20Protect me! Rescue my life from them! Do not let me be disgraced, for in you I take refuge.
21Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, For I wait for You.21May integrity and honesty protect me, for I put my hope in you.
22Redeem Israel, O God, Out of all their troubles!22O God, ransom Israel from all its troubles.
