A Psalm of David.
Unto thee, O LORD,
do I lift up
my soul.
O my God,
I trust
in thee: let me not be ashamed,
let not mine enemies
triumph
over me.
Yea, let none that wait
on thee be ashamed:
let them be ashamed
which transgress
without cause.
Shew
me thy ways,
O LORD;
teach
me thy paths.
Lead
me in thy truth,
and teach
me: for thou art the God
of my salvation;
on thee do I wait
all the day.
Remember,
O LORD,
thy tender mercies
and thy lovingkindnesses;
for they have been ever of old.
Remember
not the sins
of my youth,
nor my transgressions:
according to thy mercy
remember
thou me for thy goodness'
sake, O LORD.
Good
and upright
is the LORD:
therefore will he teach
sinners
in the way.
The meek
will he guide
in judgment:
and the meek
will he teach
his way.
All the paths
of the LORD
are mercy
and truth
unto such as keep
his covenant
and his testimonies.
For thy name's
sake, O LORD,
pardon
mine iniquity;
for it is great.
What man
is he that feareth
the LORD?
him shall he teach
in the way
that he shall choose.
His soul
shall dwell
at ease;
and his seed
shall inherit
the earth.
The secret
of the LORD
is with them that fear
him; and he will shew
them his covenant.
Mine eyes
are ever
toward the LORD;
for he shall pluck
my feet
out of the net.
Turn
thee unto me, and have mercy
upon me; for I am desolate
and afflicted.
The troubles
of my heart
are enlarged:
O bring thou me out
of my distresses.
Look
upon mine affliction
and my pain;
and forgive
all my sins.
Consider
mine enemies;
for they are many;
and they hate
me with cruel
hatred.
O keep
my soul,
and deliver
me: let me not be ashamed;
for I put my trust
in thee.
Let integrity
and uprightness
preserve
me; for I wait
on thee.
Redeem
Israel,
O God,
out of all his troubles.
