- Keep my steps steady according to your promise,
and never let iniquity have dominion over me. - The sum of your word is truth;
and every one of your righteous ordinances endures forever. - Great peace have those who love your law;
nothing can make them stumble. - Deliver me, O Lord,
from lying lips,
from a deceitful tongue. - I lift up my eyes to the hills—
from where will my help come?
My help comes from the Lord,
who made heaven and earth. - He will not let your foot be moved;
he who keeps you will not slumber. - The Lord will keep you from all evil;
he will keep your life.
The Lord will keep
your going out and your coming in
from this time on and forevermore. - Our help is in the name of the Lord,
who made heaven and earth. - Unless the Lord builds the house,
those who build it labor in vain.
Unless the Lord guards the city,
the guard keeps watch in vain. - Happy is everyone who fears the Lord,
who walks in his ways. - Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord.
Lord, hear my voice!
Let your ears be attentive
to the voice of my supplications! - I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
and in his word I hope. - How very good and pleasant it is
when kindred live together in unity! - The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me;
your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever.
Do not forsake the work of your hands. - 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. - Even before a word is on my tongue,
O Lord, you know it completely. - Where can I go from your spirit?
Or where can I flee from your presence?
If I ascend to heaven, you are there;
if I make my bed in Sheol, you are there. - For it was you who formed my inward parts;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are your works;
that I know very well. - Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my thoughts.
See if there is any wicked way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting. - Hear my prayer, O Lord;
give ear to my supplications in your faithfulness;
answer me in your righteousness. - I stretch out my hands to you;
my soul thirsts for you like a parched land. Selah - Let me hear of your steadfast love in the morning,
for in you I put my trust.
Teach me the way I should go,
for to you I lift up my soul. - Teach me to do your will,
for you are my God.
Let your good spirit lead me
on a level path. - I will extol you, my God and King,
and bless your name forever and ever. - Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised;
his greatness is unsearchable.
