To You, O Lord, I Lift Up My Soul 1{[A Psalm] of David.} Unto thee, Jehovah, do I lift up my soul. ב 2My God, I confide in thee; let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me. ג 3Yea, none that wait on thee shall be ashamed: they shall be ashamed that deal treacherously without cause. ד 4Make me to know thy ways, O Jehovah; teach me thy paths. הו 5Make me to walk in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day. ז 6Remember, Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy loving-kindnesses; for they are from everlasting. ח 7Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; according to thy loving-kindness remember thou me, for thy goodness' sake, Jehovah. ט 8Good and upright is Jehovah; therefore will he instruct sinners in the way: י 9The meek will he guide in judgment, and the meek will he teach his way. כ 10All the paths of Jehovah are loving-kindness and truth for such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. ל 11For thy name's sake, O Jehovah, thou wilt indeed pardon mine iniquity; for it is great. מ 12What man is he that feareth Jehovah? him will he instruct in the way [that] he should choose. נ 13His soul shall dwell in prosperity, and his seed shall inherit the earth. ס 14The secret of Jehovah is with them that fear him, that he may make known his covenant to them. ע 15Mine eyes are ever toward Jehovah; for he will bring my feet out of the net. פ 16Turn toward me, and be gracious unto me; for I am solitary and afflicted. צ 17The troubles of my heart are increased: bring me out of my distresses; ר 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. ש 20Keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I trust in thee. ת 21Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee. 22Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles. |
