A Psalm of David.

1To You, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.

2O my God, I trust in You; do not let me be ashamed, let not my enemies triumph over me.

3Yea, let none who wait on You be ashamed; let them be ashamed who deal treacherously without cause.

4Show me Your ways, O LORD; teach me Your paths.

5Lead me in Your truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; on You do I wait all the day long.

6Remember, O LORD, Your tender mercies and Your lovingkindness, for they have been of old.

7Do not remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; according to Your lovingkindness remember me for Your goodness' sake, O LORD.

8Good and upright is the LORD; therefore He will teach sinners in the way.

9The meek He will guide in judgment; and the meek He will teach His way.

10All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth to those who keep His covenant and His testimonies.

11For Your name's sake, O LORD, pardon my iniquity, for it is great.

12What man is he who fears the LORD? He shall teach him in the way that He shall choose.

13His soul shall dwell at ease, and his seed shall inherit the earth.

14The secret of the LORD is with those who fear Him, and He will show them His covenant.

15My eyes are ever toward the LORD, for He shall pluck my feet out of the net.

16Turn unto me, and be gracious unto me, for I am desolate and afflicted.

17The troubles of my heart are enlarged; O bring me out of my distresses.

18Look upon my affliction and my pain, and forgive all my sins.

19Consider my enemies, for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.

20O keep my soul and deliver me; let me not be ashamed, for I take refuge in You.

21Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait on You.

22Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
