[1]
[2] My God, I have trusted in you.
Don’t let me be shamed.
Don’t let my enemies triumph over me.
[3] Yes, no one who waits for you will be shamed.
They will be shamed who deal treacherously without cause. [4] Show me your ways, Yahweh.
Teach me your paths.
[5] Guide me in your truth, and teach me,
for you are the God of my salvation.
I wait for you all day long.
[6] Yahweh, remember your tender mercies and your loving kindness,
for they are from old times.
[7] Don’t remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions.
Remember me according to your loving kindness,
for your goodness’ sake, Yahweh.
[8] Good and upright is Yahweh,
therefore he will instruct sinners in the way.
[9] He will guide the humble in justice.
He will teach the humble his way.
[10] All the paths of Yahweh are loving kindness and truth
to such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
[11] For your name’s sake, Yahweh,
pardon my iniquity, for it is great.
[12] What man is he who fears Yahweh?
He shall instruct him in the way that he shall choose.
[13] His soul will dwell at ease.
His offspring will inherit the land.
[14] The friendship of Yahweh is with those who fear him.
He will show them his covenant. [15] My eyes are ever on Yahweh,
for he will pluck my feet out of the net.
[16] Turn to me, and have mercy on me,
for I am desolate and afflicted.
[17] The troubles of my heart are enlarged.
Oh bring me out of my distresses.
[18] Consider my affliction and my travail.
Forgive all my sins.
[19] Consider my enemies, for they are many.
They hate me with cruel hatred.
[20] Oh keep my soul, and deliver me.
Let me not be disappointed, for I take refuge in you.
[21] Let integrity and uprightness preserve me,
for I wait for you.
[22] God, redeem Israel
out of all his troubles.
