| 1O LORD, I give my life to you. | 1To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul. |
| 2I trust in you, my God! Do not let me be disgraced, or let my enemies rejoice in my defeat. | 2O my God, in you I trust; let me not be put to shame; let not my enemies exult over me. |
| 3No one who trusts in you will ever be disgraced, but disgrace comes to those who try to deceive others. | 3Indeed, none who wait for you shall be put to shame; they shall be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous. |
| 4Show me the right path, O LORD; point out the road for me to follow. | 4Make me to know your ways, O LORD; teach me your paths. |
| 5Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you. | 5Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all the day long. |
| 6Remember, O LORD, your compassion and unfailing love, which you have shown from long ages past. | 6Remember your mercy, O LORD, and your steadfast love, for they have been from of old. |
| 7Do not remember the rebellious sins of my youth. Remember me in the light of your unfailing love, for you are merciful, O LORD. | 7Remember not the sins of my youth or my transgressions; according to your steadfast love remember me, for the sake of your goodness, O LORD! |
| 8The LORD is good and does what is right; he shows the proper path to those who go astray. | 8Good and upright is the LORD; therefore he instructs sinners in the way. |
| 9He leads the humble in doing right, teaching them his way. | 9He leads the humble in what is right, and teaches the humble his way. |
| 10The LORD leads with unfailing love and faithfulness all who keep his covenant and obey his demands. | 10All the paths of the LORD are steadfast love and faithfulness, for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies. |
| 11For the honor of your name, O LORD, forgive my many, many sins. | 11For your name’s sake, O LORD, pardon my guilt, for it is great. |
| 12Who are those who fear the LORD? He will show them the path they should choose. | 12Who is the man who fears the LORD? Him will he instruct in the way that he should choose. |
| 13They will live in prosperity, and their children will inherit the land. | 13His soul shall abide in well-being, and his offspring shall inherit the land. |
| 14The LORD is a friend to those who fear him. He teaches them his covenant. | 14The friendship of the LORD is for those who fear him, and he makes known to them his covenant. |
| 15My eyes are always on the LORD, for he rescues me from the traps of my enemies. | 15My eyes are ever toward the LORD, for he will pluck my feet out of the net. |
| 16Turn to me and have mercy, for I am alone and in deep distress. | 16Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. |
| 17My problems go from bad to worse. Oh, save me from them all! | 17The troubles of my heart are enlarged; bring me out of my distresses. |
| 18Feel my pain and see my trouble. Forgive all my sins. | 18Consider my affliction and my trouble, and forgive all my sins. |
| 19See how many enemies I have and how viciously they hate me! | 19Consider how many are my foes, and with what violent hatred they hate me. |
| 20Protect me! Rescue my life from them! Do not let me be disgraced, for in you I take refuge. | 20Oh, guard my soul, and deliver me! Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you. |
| 21May integrity and honesty protect me, for I put my hope in you. | 21May integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you. |
| 22O God, ransom Israel from all its troubles. | 22Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles. |
