Hoods, O Hiarn, troggym seose m'annym; my Yee, ta mee er choyrt my hreishteil aynyd: O ny lhig dooys 've er my choyrt gys nearey, chamoo lhig da my noidyn ve boggyssagh harrym.

Unto thee, O Lord, will I lift up my soul; my God, I have put my trust in thee: O let me not be confounded, neither let mine enemies triumph over me.

2

Son cha bee veg jeusyn ooilley ny ta treishteil aynyds er nyn naaraghey: agh bee nyn lheid as ta girree-magh gyn oyr er nyn goyrt bun-ry-skyn.

For all they that hope in thee shall not be ashamed: but such as transgress without a cause shall be put to confusion.

3

Jeeagh dou dty raad, O Hiarn: as ynsee dou dty chassanyn.

Shew me thy ways, O Lord: and teach me thy paths.

4

Lead me forth in thy truth, and learn me: for thou art the God of my salvation; in thee hath been my hope all the day long.

5

Call to remembrance, O Lord, thy tender mercies: and thy loving-kindnesses, which have been ever of old.

6

O ny cooinee er peccaghyn as loghtyn my aegid: agh cordail rish dty vyghin smooinee orrym, O Hiarn, er graih dty vieys.

O remember not the sins and offences of my youth: but according to thy mercy think thou upon me, O Lord, for thy goodness.

Gracious and righteous is the Lord: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.

8

Adsyn ta imlee nee eh leeideil ayns briwnys: as dauesyn ta meen, ynsee eh e raad.

Them that are meek shall he guide in judgement: and such as are gentle, them shall he learn his way.

For thy Name's sake, O Lord: be merciful unto my sin, for it is great.

Mine eyes are ever looking unto the Lord: for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.

15

Chyndaa oo hene hym's, as jean myghin orrym: son ta mee treigit as ayns treihys.

Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me: for I am desolate, and in misery.
