6Remember not the sins of my youth and my transgressions; *
remember me according to your love
and for the sake of your goodness, O Lord.
7Gracious and upright is the Lord; *
therefore he teaches sinners in his way.
8He guides the humble in doing right *
and teaches his way to the lowly.
9All the paths of the Lord are love and faithfulness *
to those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.
10For your Name’s sake, O Lord, *
forgive my sin, for it is great.
11Who are they who fear the Lord? *
he will teach them the way that they should choose.
12They shall dwell in prosperity, *
and their offspring shall inherit the land.
13The Lord is a friend to those who fear him *
and will show them his covenant.
14My eyes are ever looking to the Lord, *
for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.
15Turn to me and have pity on me, *
for I am left alone and in misery.
16The sorrows of my heart have increased; *
bring me out of my troubles.
17Look upon my adversity and misery *
and forgive me all my sin.
18Look upon my enemies, for they are many, *
and they bear a violent hatred against me.
