¹Unto thee, O Jehovah, do I lift up my soul.

⁴Show me thy ways, O Jehovah; Teach me thy paths.

⁵Guide me in thy truth, and teach me; For thou art the God of my salvation; For thee do I wait all the day.

⁶Remember, O Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindness; For they have been ever of old.

⁷Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: According to thy lovingkindness remember thou me, For thy goodness’ sake, O Jehovah.

⁸Good and upright is Jehovah: Therefore will he instruct sinners in the way.

⁹The meek will he guide in justice; And the meek will he teach his way.

¹⁰All the paths of Jehovah are lovingkindness and truth Unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

¹¹For thy name’s sake, O Jehovah, Pardon mine iniquity, for it is great.

¹²What man is he that feareth Jehovah? Him shall he instruct in the way that he shall choose.

¹³His soul shall dwell at ease; And his seed shall inherit the land.

¹⁴The friendship of Jehovah is with them that fear him; And he will show them his covenant.

¹⁵Mine eyes are ever toward Jehovah; For he will pluck my feet out of the net.

¹⁶Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; For I am desolate and afflicted.

¹⁷The troubles of my heart are enlarged: Oh bring thou me out of my distresses.

¹⁸Consider mine affliction and my travail; And forgive all my sins.

¹⁹Consider mine enemies, for they are many; And they hate me with cruel hatred.

²⁰Oh keep my soul, and deliver me: Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in thee.

²¹Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, For I wait for thee.

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