1. Of David.To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul,
2. my God, in you I trust;do not let me be disgraced;do not let my enemies gloat over me.
3. No one is disgraced who waits for you,but only those who are treacherous without cause.
4. Make known to me your ways, Lord;teach me your paths.
5. Guide me by your fidelity and teach me,for you are God my savior,for you I wait all the day long.
6. Remember your compassion and your mercy, O Lord,for they are ages old.
7. Remember no more the sins of my youth;remember me according to your mercy,because of your goodness, Lord.
8. Good and upright is the Lord,therefore he shows sinners the way,
9. He guides the humble in righteousness,and teaches the humble his way.
10. All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truthtoward those who honor his covenant and decrees.
11. For the sake of your name, Lord,pardon my guilt, though it is great.
12. Who is the one who fears the Lord?God shows him the way he should choose.
13. He will abide in prosperity,and his descendants will inherit the land.
14. The counsel of the Lord belongs to those who fear him;and his covenant instructs them.
15. My eyes are ever upon the Lord,who frees my feet from the snare.
