Good News Translation GNT
New International Version NIV
1 To you, O Lord, I offer my prayer;
1
In you, LORD my God, I put my trust.
2 in you, my God, I trust. Save me from the shame of defeat; don't let my enemies gloat over me!
2
I trust in you; do not let me be put to shame, nor let my enemies triumph over me.
3 Defeat does not come to those who trust in you, but to those who are quick to rebel against you.
3
No one who hopes in you will ever be put to shame, but shame will come on those who are treacherous without cause.
4 Teach me your ways, O Lord; make them known to me.
4
Show me your ways, LORD, teach me your paths.
5 Teach me to live according to your truth, for you are my God, who saves me. I always trust in you.
5
Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.
6 Remember, O Lord, your kindness and constant love which you have shown from long ago.
6
Remember, LORD, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old.
7 Forgive the sins and errors of my youth. In your constant love and goodness, remember me, Lord!
7
Do not remember the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me, for you, LORD, are good.
8 Because the Lord is righteous and good, he teaches sinners the path they should follow.
8
Good and upright is the LORD; therefore he instructs sinners in his ways.
9 He leads the humble in the right way and teaches them his will.
9
He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way.
