- For you bless the righteous, O Lord;
you cover them with favor as with a shield. - In you, O Lord, I seek refuge;
do not let me ever be put to shame;
in your righteousness deliver me. - I will both lie down and sleep in peace;
for you alone, O Lord, make me lie down in safety. - Teach me your way, O Lord,
that I may walk in your truth;
give me an undivided heart to revere your name. - Yours, O Lord, are the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty; for all that is in the heavens and on the earth is yours; yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are exalted as head above all.
- Hear, O Israel: The Lord is our God, the Lord alone. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.
- Be mindful of your mercy, O Lord, and of your steadfast love,
for they have been from of old.
Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions;
according to your steadfast love remember me,
for your goodness' sake, O Lord! - Yet, O Lord, you are our Father;
we are the clay, and you are our potter;
we are all the work of your hand. - Hear my prayer, O Lord;
give ear to my supplications in your faithfulness;
answer me in your righteousness. - Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory,
for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness. - O Lord, in the morning you hear my voice;
in the morning I plead my case to you, and watch. - I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples,
and I will sing praises to you among the nations. - Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
be acceptable to you,
O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. - Help us, O God of our salvation,
for the glory of your name;
deliver us, and forgive our sins,
for your name's sake. - Have mercy on me, O God,
according to your steadfast love;
according to your abundant mercy
blot out my transgressions.
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,
and cleanse me from my sin. - O Lord, all my longing is known to you;
my sighing is not hidden from you. - For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving,
abounding in steadfast love to all who call on you. - The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me;
your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever.
Do not forsake the work of your hands. - Do not, O Lord, withhold
your mercy from me;
let your steadfast love and your faithfulness
keep me safe forever. - O Lord, you have searched me and known me.
You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
you discern my thoughts from far away. - In the path of your judgments,
O Lord, we wait for you;
your name and your renown
are the soul's desire. - To you, O God of my ancestors,
I give thanks and praise,
for you have given me wisdom and power,
and have now revealed to me what we asked of you,
for you have revealed to us what the king ordered. - And those who know your name put their trust in you,
for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you. - Hear my prayer, O Lord,
and give ear to my cry;
do not hold your peace at my tears.
For I am your passing guest,
an alien, like all my forebears. - O God, you are my God, I seek you,
my soul thirsts for you;
my flesh faints for you,
as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.
