A Psalm of David. To you, O Lord, have I lifted up my soul.
2 Deus meus in te confido non erubescam
O my God, I have trusted in you: let me not be confounded, neither let mine enemies laugh me to scorn.
3 neque inrideant me inimici mei etenim universi qui sustinent te non confundentur
For none of them that wait on you shall in any wise be ashamed: let them be ashamed that transgress without cause.
4 confundantur omnes iniqua agentes supervacue vias tuas Domine demonstra mihi et semitas tuas doce me
Show me your ways, O Lord; and teach me your paths.
5 dirige me in veritatem tuam et doce me quoniam tu es Deus salvator meus et te sustinui tota die
Lead me in your truth, and teach me: for you are God my Saviour: and I have waited on you all the day.
6 reminiscere miserationum tuarum Domine et misericordiarum tuarum quia a saeculo sunt
Remember your compassions, O Lord, and your mercies, for they are from everlasting.
7 delicta iuventutis meae et ignorantias meas ne memineris secundum misericordiam tuam memento mei tu; propter bonitatem tuam Domine
Remember not the sins of my youth, nor [my sins] of ignorance: remember me according to your mercy, for your goodness' sake, O Lord.
8 dulcis et rectus Dominus propter hoc legem dabit delinquentibus in via
Good and upright is the Lord: therefore will he instruct sinners in [the] way.
9 diriget mansuetos in iudicio docebit mites vias suas
The meek will he guide in judgment: the meek will he teach his ways.
10 universae viae Domini misericordia et veritas requirentibus testamentum eius et testimonia eius
All the ways of the Lord are mercy and truth to them that seek his covenant and his testimonies.
11 propter nomen tuum Domine et propitiaberis peccato meo multum est enim
For your name's sake, O Lord, do you also be merciful to my sin; for it is great.
12 quis est homo qui timet Dominum legem statuet ei in via quam elegit
Who is the man that fears the Lord? he shall instruct him in the way which he has chosen.
