- Then I acknowledged my sin to you,
and I did not hide my iniquity;
I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,”
and you forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah - You are a hiding place for me;
you preserve me from trouble;
you surround me with glad cries of deliverance. Selah - I will instruct you and teach you the way you should go;
I will counsel you with my eye upon you. - For the word of the Lord is upright,
and all his work is done in faithfulness. - He loves righteousness and justice;
the earth is full of the steadfast love of the Lord. - By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,
and all their host by the breath of his mouth. - Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord,
the people whom he has chosen as his heritage. - Truly the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him,
on those who hope in his steadfast love. - Let your steadfast love, O Lord, be upon us,
even as we hope in you. - I will bless the Lord at all times;
his praise shall continually be in my mouth. - I sought the Lord, and he answered me,
and delivered me from all my fears. - This poor soul cried, and was heard by the Lord,
and was saved from every trouble. - O taste and see that the Lord is good;
happy are those who take refuge in him. - The young lions suffer want and hunger,
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. - Keep your tongue from evil,
and your lips from speaking deceit. - Depart from 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 against evildoers,
to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. - When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears,
and rescues them from all their troubles.
The Lord is near to the brokenhearted,
and saves the crushed in spirit. - Many are the afflictions of the righteous,
but the Lord rescues them from them all. - The Lord redeems the life of his servants;
none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned. - Trust in the Lord, and do good;
so you will live in the land, and enjoy security. - Take delight in the Lord,
and he will give you the desires of your heart. - Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him, and he will act.
He will make your vindication shine like the light,
and the justice of your cause like the noonday. - Be still before the Lord, and wait patiently for him;
do not fret over those who prosper in their way,
over those who carry out evil devices.
