| 1 | [By David.] To you, O LORD, I lift my soul. | To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul. | Of David. In you, LORD my God, I put my trust. | |
| 2 | I trust you, O my God. Do not let me be put to shame. Do not let my enemies triumph over me. | O my God, in you I trust; let me not be put to shame; let not my enemies exult over me. | I trust in you; do not let me be put to shame, nor let my enemies triumph over me. | |
| 3 | No one who waits for you will ever be put to shame, but all who are unfaithful will be put to shame. | Indeed, none who wait for you shall be put to shame; they shall be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous. | No one who hopes in you will ever be put to shame, but shame will come on those who are treacherous without cause. | |
| 4 | Make your ways known to me, O LORD, and teach me your paths. | Make me to know your ways, O LORD; teach me your paths. | Show me your ways, LORD, teach me your paths. | |
| 5 | Lead me in your truth and teach me because you are God, my savior. I wait all day long for you. | Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all the day long. | Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. | |

| 7 | Do not remember the sins of my youth or my rebellious ways. Remember me, O LORD, in keeping with your mercy and your goodness. | Remember not the sins of my youth or my transgressions; according to your steadfast love remember me, for the sake of your goodness, O LORD! | Do not remember the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me, for you, LORD, are good. | |
| 8 | The LORD is good and decent. That is why he teaches sinners the way they should live. | Good and upright is the LORD; therefore he instructs sinners in the way. | Good and upright is the LORD; therefore he instructs sinners in his ways. | |
| 9 | He leads humble people to do what is right, and he teaches them his way. | He leads the humble in what is right, and teaches the humble his way. | He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way. | |
| 10 | Every path of the LORD is [one of] mercy and truth for those who cling to his promise and written instructions. | All the paths of the LORD are steadfast love and faithfulness, for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies. | All the ways of the LORD are loving and faithful toward those who keep the demands of his covenant. | |
| 11 | For the sake of your name, O LORD, remove my guilt, because it is great. | For your name’s sake, O LORD, pardon my guilt, for it is great. | For the sake of your name, LORD, forgive my iniquity, though it is great. | |
| 12 | Who, then, is this person that fears the LORD? He is the one whom the LORD will teach which path to choose. | Who is the man who fears the LORD? Him will he instruct in the way that he should choose. | Who, then, are those who fear the LORD? He will instruct them in the ways they should choose. | |
| 13 | He will enjoy good things in life, and his descendants will inherit the land. | His soul shall abide in well-being, and his offspring shall inherit the land. | They will spend their days in prosperity, and their descendants will inherit the land. | |
| 14 | The LORD advises those who fear him. He reveals to them the intent of his promise. | The friendship of the LORD is for those who fear him, and he makes known to them his covenant. | The LORD confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them. | |
| 15 | My eyes are always on the LORD. He removes my feet from traps. | My eyes are ever toward the LORD, for he will pluck my feet out of the net. | My eyes are ever on the LORD, for only he will release my feet from the snare. | |
| 16 | Turn to me, and have pity on me. I am lonely and oppressed. | Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. | Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. | |
| 17 | Relieve my troubled heart, and bring me out of my distress. | The troubles of my heart are enlarged; bring me out of my distresses. | Relieve the troubles of my heart and free me from my anguish. | |
| 18 | Look at my misery and suffering, and forgive all my sins. | Consider my affliction and my trouble, and forgive all my sins. | Look on my affliction and my distress and take away all my sins. | |
| 19 | See how my enemies have increased in number, how they have hated me with vicious hatred! | Consider how many are my foes, and with what violent hatred they hate me. | See how numerous are my enemies and how fiercely they hate me! | |
| 20 | Protect my life, and rescue me! Do not let me be put to shame. I have taken refuge in you. | Oh, guard my soul, and deliver me! Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you. | Guard my life and rescue me; do not let me be put to shame, for I take refuge in you. | |
| 21 | Integrity and honesty will protect me because I wait for you. | May integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you. | May integrity and uprightness protect me, because my hope, LORD, is in you. | |
| 22 | Rescue Israel, O God, from all its troubles! | Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles. | Deliver Israel, O God, from all their troubles! | |
