Psalms 25

1 To thee, O Jehovah, do I lift up my soul.

2 O my God, in thee I have trusted. Let me not be put to shame. Let not my enemies triumph over me.

O my God, in Thee have I trusted, let me not be ashamed; let not mine enemies triumph over me.

3 Yea, none who wait for thee shall be put to shame. They shall be put to shame who deal treacherously without cause.

Yea, none that wait for Thee shall be ashamed; they shall be ashamed that deal treacherously without cause.

4 Show me thy ways, O Jehovah. Teach me thy paths.

6 Remember, O Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy loving kindness. For they have been ever of old.

8 Good and upright is Jehovah. Therefore he will instruct sinners in the way.

Good and upright is the LORD; therefore doth He instruct sinners in the way.

9 The meek he will guide in justice, and the meek he will teach his way.

10 All the paths of Jehovah are loving kindness and truth to such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

11 For thy name's sake, O Jehovah, pardon my iniquity, for it is great.

12 What man is he who fears Jehovah? Him he shall instruct in the way that he shall choose.

14 The friendship of Jehovah is with those who fear him, and he will show them his covenant.

15 My eyes are ever toward Jehovah, for he will pluck my feet out of the net.

16 Turn thee to me, and have mercy upon me, for I am desolate and afflicted.

Turn Thee unto me, and be gracious unto me; for I am solitary and afflicted.

17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged. O bring thou me out of my distresses.

19 Consider my enemies, for they are many. And they hate me with cruel hatred.

20 O keep my soul, and deliver me. Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in thee.

21 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for thee.

22 Redeem Israel, O God, out of all of his troubles.
