Psalms 25
1. <<A Psalm of David.>> Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up * my soul.
2. O my God, I trust * in thee: let me not be ashamed * , let not mine enemies * triumph * over me.
3. Yea, let none that wait * on thee be ashamed * : let them be ashamed * which transgress * without cause.
4. Shew * me thy ways, O LORD;teach * me thy paths.
5. Lead * me in thy truth, and teach * me: for thou art the God of my salvation;on thee do I wait * all the day.
6. Remember * , O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.
7. Remember * not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember * thou me for thy goodness'sake, O LORD.
8. Good and upright is the LORD:therefore will he teach * sinners in the way.
9. The meek will he guide * in judgment: and the meek will he teach * his way.
10. All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep * his covenant and his testimonies.
11. For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon * mine iniquity; for it is great.
12. What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach * in the way that he shall choose * .
13. His soul shall dwell * at ease;and his seed shall inherit * the earth.
14. The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew * them his covenant.
15. Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck * my feet out of the net.
16. Turn * thee unto me, and have mercy * upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted.
17. The troubles of my heart are enlarged * : O bring thou me out * of my distresses.
18. Look * upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive * all my sins.
19. Consider * mine enemies * ; for they are many * ; and they hate * me with cruel hatred.
20. O keep * my soul, and deliver * me: let me not be ashamed * ; for I put my trust * in thee.
21. Let integrity and uprightness preserve * me; for I wait * on thee.
22. Redeem * Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
