- You are truly my rock and my fortress;
for the sake of your name, lead and guide me. - My life is in your hands;
deliver me from the power of my enemies,
from the clutches of those who pursue me. - Let your face shine upon your servant;
save me in your kindness. - How great is your goodness, O Lord,
which you have stored up for those who fear you
and which you bestow on those who take refuge in you,
in the presence of all the people. - Be strong and courageous in your hearts,
all you who place your hope in the Lord. - Blessed is the one whose offense is forgiven,
whose sin is erased. - As long as I remained silent,
my body wasted away
as the result of my groaning throughout the day. - Then I acknowledged my sin to you,
and I made no attempt to conceal my guilt.
I said, “I will confess my offenses to the Lord,”
and you removed the guilt of my sin. Selah - You are a place of refuge for me;
you preserve me from trouble
and surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah - I will instruct you
and guide you in the way you should go;
I will counsel you
and keep my eyes upon you. - For the word of the Lord is true,
and he is faithful in everything he does. - The Lord loves righteousness and justice;
the earth is filled with his kindness. - The heavens were made by the word of the Lord,
and all their host by the breath of his mouth. - Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,
the people whom he has chosen as his heritage. - But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him,
on those who trust in his kindness. - O Lord, let your kindness rest upon us,
for we have placed our hope in you. - I will bless the Lord at all times;
his praise will be continually on my lips. - I sought the Lord, and he answered me;
he set me free from all my fears. - In my anguish I cried out;
the Lord heard my plea,
and I was saved from all my troubles. - Taste and see that the Lord is good;
blessed is the man who takes refuge in him. - The powerful suffer want and go hungry,
but those who seek the Lord want for no good thing. - Then keep your tongue from evil
and your lips from telling lies. - Shun evil and do good;
seek peace and pursue it. - The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
and his ears are open to their cry. - The face of the Lord is turned against those who do evil,
to erase all memory of them from the earth.
