By David. Unto Thee, O Jehovah, my soul I lift up. |
2
|
My God, in Thee I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed, Let not mine enemies exult over me. |
3
|
Also let none waiting on Thee be ashamed, Let the treacherous dealers without cause be ashamed. |
4
|
Thy ways, O Jehovah, cause me to know, Thy paths teach Thou me. |
5
|
Cause me to tread in Thy truth, and teach me, For Thou [art] the God of my salvation, Near Thee I have waited all the day. |
6
|
Remember Thy mercies, O Jehovah, And Thy kindnesses, for from the age [are] they. |
7
|
Sins of my youth, and my transgressions, Do not Thou remember. According to Thy kindness be mindful of me, For Thy goodness' sake, O Jehovah. |
8
|
Good and upright [is] Jehovah, Therefore He directeth sinners in the way. |
9
|
He causeth the humble to tread in judgment, And teacheth the humble His way. |
10
|
All the paths of Jehovah [are] kindness and truth, To those keeping His covenant, And His testimonies. |
11
|
For Thy name's sake, O Jehovah, Thou hast pardoned mine iniquity, for it [is] great. |
12
|
Who [is] this—the man fearing Jehovah? He directeth him in the way He doth choose. |
13
|
His soul in good doth remain, And his seed doth possess the land. |
14
|
The secret of Jehovah [is] for those fearing Him, And His covenant—to cause them to know. |
15
|
Mine eyes [are] continually unto Jehovah, For He bringeth out from a net my feet. |
16
|
Turn Thou unto me, and favour me, For lonely and afflicted [am] I. |
17
|
The distresses of my heart have enlarged themselves, From my distresses bring me out. |
18
|
See mine affliction and my misery, And bear with all my sins. |
19
|
See my enemies, for they have been many, And with violent hatred they have hated me. |
20
|
Keep my soul, and deliver me, Let me not be ashamed, for I trusted in Thee. |
21
|
Integrity and uprightness do keep me, For I have waited [on] Thee. |
22
|
Redeem Israel, O God, from all his distresses! |
