(A)Good and upright is the Lord;
    therefore he (B)instructs sinners in the way.
He leads the humble in what is right,
    and teaches the humble his way.
10 All the paths of the Lord are (C)steadfast love and faithfulness,
    for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.

11 For your (D)name's sake, O Lord,
    pardon my guilt, for it is (E)great.
12 Who is the man who fears the Lord?
    Him (F)will he instruct in the way that he should choose.
13 His soul shall (G)abide in well-being,
    and his (H)offspring (I)shall inherit the land.
14 (J)The friendship[a] of the Lord is for those who fear him,
    and he makes known to them his covenant.
15 My (K)eyes are ever toward the Lord,
    for he will (L)pluck my feet out of the net.
