1 | To you, Yahweh, do I lift up my soul. |
2 | My God, I have trusted in you. Don't let me be shamed. Don't let my enemies triumph over me. |
3 | Yes, no one who waits for you shall be shamed. They shall be shamed who deal treacherously without cause. |
4 | Show me your ways, Yahweh. Teach me your paths. |
5 | Guide me in your truth, and teach me, For you are the God of my salvation, I wait for you all day long. |
6 | Yahweh, remember your tender mercies and your loving kindness, for they are from old times. |
7 | Don't remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions. Remember me according to your loving kindness, for your goodness' sake, Yahweh. |
8 | Good and upright is Yahweh, therefore he will instruct sinners in the way. |
9 | He will guide the humble in justice. He will teach the humble his way. |
10 | All the paths of Yahweh are loving kindness and truth to such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. |
11 | For your name's sake, Yahweh, pardon my iniquity, for it is great. |
12 | What man is he who fears Yahweh? He shall instruct him in the way that he shall choose. |
13 | His soul shall dwell at ease. His seed shall inherit the land. |
14 | The friendship of Yahweh is with those who fear him. He will show them his covenant. |
15 | My eyes are ever on Yahweh, for he will pluck my feet out of the net. |
16 | Turn to me, and have mercy on me, for I am desolate and afflicted. |
17 | The troubles of my heart are enlarged. Oh bring me out of my distresses. |
18 | Consider my affliction and my travail. Forgive all my sins. |
19 | Consider my enemies, for they are many. They hate me with cruel hatred. |
20 | Oh keep my soul, and deliver me. Let me not be disappointed, for I take refuge in you. |
21 | Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you. |
22 | Redeem Israel, God, out all of his troubles. Psalm 26 By David. |
