O my God, I have put my faith in you, let me not be shamed; let not my haters be glorying over me.

The secret of the Lord is with those in whose hearts is the fear of him; he will make his agreement clear to them.

O keep my soul, and take me out of danger: let me not be shamed, for I have put my faith in you.

For my clean and upright ways keep me safe, because my hope is in you.

Give Israel salvation, O God, out of all his troubles.
