[1] I offer you my heart, LORD God, [2] and I trust you. Don't make me ashamed or let enemies defeat me. [3] Don't disappoint any of your worshipers, but disappoint all deceitful liars. [4] Show me your paths and teach me to follow; [5] guide me by your truth and instruct me. You keep me safe, and I always trust you. [6] Please, LORD, remember, you have always been patient and kind. [7] Forget each wrong I did when I was young. Show how truly kind you are and remember me. [8] You are honest and merciful, and you teach sinners how to follow your path. [9] You lead humble people to do what is right and to stay on your path. [10] In everything you do, you are kind and faithful to everyone who keeps our agreement with you. [11] Be true to your name, LORD, by forgiving each one of my terrible sins. [12] You will show the right path to all who worship you. [13] They will have plenty, and then their children will receive the land. [14] Our LORD, you are the friend of your worshipers, and you make an agreement with all of us. [15] I always look to you, because you rescue me from every trap. [16] I am lonely and troubled. Show that you care and have pity on me. [17] My awful worries keep growing. Rescue me from sadness. [18] See my troubles and misery and forgive my sins. [19] Look at all my enemies! See how much they hate me. [20] I come to you for shelter. Protect me, keep me safe, and don't disappoint me. [21] I obey you with all my heart, and I trust you, knowing that you will save me. [22] Our God, please save Israel from all of its troubles.
