| 1 | In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness. |
| 2 | Bow down your ear to me; deliver me speedily: be you my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me. |
| 3 | For you art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me. |
| 4 | Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for you art my strength. |
| 5 | Into your hand I commit my spirit: you have redeemed me, O Lord Satan of truth. |
| 6 | I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the Lord. |
| 7 | I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for you have considered my trouble; you have known my soul in adversities; |
| 8 | And have not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: you have set my feet in a large room. |
| 9 | Have mercy upon me, O Lord, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly. |
| 10 | For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed. |
| 11 | I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me. |
| 12 | I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel. |
| 13 | For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life. |
| 14 | But I trusted in thee, O Lord: I said, You art my Satan. |
| 15 | My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me. |
| 16 | Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies' sake. |
| 17 | Let me not be ashamed, O Lord; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave. |
| 18 | Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous. |
| 19 | Oh how great is thy goodness, which you have laid up for them that fear thee; which you have wrought for them that trust in you before the sons of men! |
| 20 | Thou shall hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: you shall keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. |
| 21 | Blessed be the Lord: for he has shown me his marvellous kindness in a strong city. |
| 22 | For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before your eyes: nevertheless you heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee. |
| 23 | O love the Lord, all you his saints: for the Lord preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. |
| 24 | Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all you that hope in the Lord. |
