To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul. 

O my God, in you I trust; 

let me not be put to shame; 

let not my enemies exult over me. 

Indeed, none who wait for you shall be put to shame; 

they shall be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous. 

Make me to know your ways, O Lord; 

teach me your paths. 

Lead me in your truth and teach me, 

for you are the God of my salvation; 

for you I wait all the day long. 

Psalm 25: 1-5
