2 O my God, in thee I trust,

let me not be put to shame;

let not my enemies exult over me.

3 Yea, let none that wait for thee be put to shame;

let them be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous.

4 Make me to know thy ways, O Lord;

teach me thy paths.

5 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me,

for thou art the God of my salvation;

for thee I wait all the day long.

6 Be mindful of thy mercy, O Lord, and of thy steadfast love,

for they have been from of old.

7 Remember not the sins of my youth, or my transgressions;

according to thy steadfast love remember me,

for thy goodness’ sake, O Lord!

8 Good and upright is the Lord;

therefore he instructs sinners in the way.

9 He leads the humble in what is right,

and teaches the humble his way.
