3Indeed, none of those who wait for You will be ashamed;

Or Let those...be ashamed Those who deal treacherously without cause will be ashamed.

4Make me know Your ways, Lord;

Teach me Your paths.

5Lead me in Your truth and teach me,

For You are the God of my salvation;

For You I wait all the day.

6Remember, Lord, Your compassion and Your faithfulness,

For they have been Or everlastingfrom of old.

7Do not remember the sins of my youth or my wrongdoings;

Remember me according to Your faithfulness,

For Your goodness’ sake, Lord.

Therefore He instructs sinners in the way.

9He leads the Or afflictedhumble in justice,

And He teaches the Or afflictedhumble His way.
