¹ [A Psalme of Dauid.] Vnto thee, O Lord, doe I lift vp my soule. ² O my God, I trust in thee, let me not be ashamed: let not mine enemies triumph ouer me. ³ Yea let none that waite on thee, be ashamed: let them bee ashamed which transgresse without cause. ⁴ Shewe mee thy wayes, O Lord: teach me thy pathes. ⁵ Lead me in thy trueth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my saluation, on thee doe I waite all the day. ⁶ Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies, and thy louing kindnesses: for they haue beene euer of old. ⁷ Remember not the sinnes of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercie remember thou me, for thy goodnesse sake, O Lord.

⁸ Good and vpright is the Lord: therefore will hee teach sinners in the way. ⁹ The meeke will he guide in iudgement: and the meeke will he teach his way. ¹⁰ All the pathes of the Lord are mercy and truth: vnto such as keepe his couenant, and his testimonies. ¹¹ For thy names sake, O Lord, pardon mine iniquitie: for it is great. ¹² What man is he that feareth the Lord? him shall he teach in the way that he shall chuse. ¹³ His soule shall dwell at ease: and his seede shall inherite the earth. ¹⁴ The secret of the Lord is with them that feare him: and he will shew them his couenant.

¹⁵ Mine eyes are euer towards the Lord: for hee shall plucke my feete out of the net. ¹⁶ Turne thee vnto me, and haue mercy vpon me: for I am desolate and afflicted. ¹⁷ The troubles of my heart are inlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses. ¹⁸ Looke vpon mine affliction, aud my paine, and forgiue all my sinnes. ¹⁹ Consider mine enemies: for they are many, and they hate me with cruell hatred. ²⁰ O keepe my soule and deliuer me: let me not bee ashamed, for I put my trust in thee. ²¹ Let integritie and vprightnesse preserue me: for I wait on thee. ²² Redeeme Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
