⁴ Make your ways known to me, Lord;
teach me your paths.^(C1)5 Guide me in your truth and teach me,^(C1)
for you are the God of my salvation;^(C2)
I wait for you all day long.^(C3)6 Remember, Lord, your compassion
and your faithful love,
for they have existed from antiquity.^(F1)(C1)7 Do not remember the sins of my youth^(C1)
or my acts of rebellion;^(C2)
in keeping with your faithful love, remember me
because of your goodness, Lord.^(C3)

⁸ The Lord is good and upright;^(C1)
therefore he shows sinners the way.^(C2)9 He leads the humble in what is right^(C1)
and teaches them his way.^(C2)10 All the Lord’s ways show faithful love and truth
to those who keep his covenant and decrees.^(C1)11 Lord, for the sake of your name,
forgive my iniquity, for it is immense.^(C1)

¹² Who is this person who fears the Lord?^(C1)
He will show him the way he should choose.^(C2)13 He will live a good life,
and his descendants will inherit the land.^(F1)(C1)14 The secret counsel of the Lord
is for those who fear him,
and he reveals his covenant to them.^(C1)15 My eyes are always on the Lord,
for he will pull my feet out of the net.^(C1)

¹⁶ Turn to me and be gracious to me,
for I am alone and afflicted.^(C1)17 The distresses of my heart increase;^(F1)(C1)
bring me out of my sufferings.^(C2)18 Consider my affliction and trouble,^(C1)
and forgive all my sins.^(C2)19 Consider my enemies; they are numerous,^(C1)
and they hate me violently.^(C2)20 Guard me and rescue me;^(C1)
do not let me be put to shame,
for I take refuge in you.^(C2)21 May integrity and what is right
watch over me,
for I wait for you.^(C1)

²² God, redeem Israel, from all its distresses.^(C1)
