Psalm 86:11-13
New Catholic Bible
11 Teach me your ways, O Lord,
so that I may walk in your truth;
let me worship your name
with an undivided heart.[a]
12 I will praise you with all my heart,[b]
O Lord, my God,
and I will glorify your name forever.
13 Your kindness[c] toward me is great;
you have rescued me from the depths of the netherworld.
