To You, O Lord, I Lift Up My Soul

1

א

To you, Yahweh, do I lift up my soul.

ב

2My God, I have trusted in you. Don't let me be shamed. Don't let my enemies triumph over me.

ג

3Yes, no one who waits for you shall be shamed. They shall be shamed who deal treacherously without cause.

ד

4Show me your ways, Yahweh. Teach me your paths.

הו

5Guide me in your truth, and teach me, For you are the God of my salvation, I wait for you all day long.

ז

6Yahweh, remember your tender mercies and your loving kindness, for they are from old times.

ח

7Don't remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions. Remember me according to your loving kindness, for your goodness' sake, Yahweh.

ט

8Good and upright is Yahweh, therefore he will instruct sinners in the way.

י

9He will guide the humble in justice. He will teach the humble his way.

כ

10All the paths of Yahweh are loving kindness and truth to such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

ל

11For your name's sake, Yahweh, pardon my iniquity, for it is great.

מ

12What man is he who fears Yahweh? He shall instruct him in the way that he shall choose.

נ

13His soul shall dwell at ease. His seed shall inherit the land.

ס

14The friendship of Yahweh is with those who fear him. He will show them his covenant.

ע

15My eyes are ever on Yahweh, for he will pluck my feet out of the net.

פ

16Turn to me, and have mercy on me, for I am desolate and afflicted.

צ

17The troubles of my heart are enlarged. Oh bring me out of my distresses.

ר

18Consider my affliction and my travail. Forgive all my sins.

19Consider my enemies, for they are many. They hate me with cruel hatred.

ש

20Oh keep my soul, and deliver me. Let me not be disappointed, for I take refuge in you.

ת

21Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you.

22Redeem Israel, God, out all of his troubles. By David.
