Psalms 25
1 Of David. To You, O LORD, I lift up my soul;
[A Psalm] of David. Unto thee, Jehovah, do I lift up my soul.
2 in You, my God, I trust. Do not let me be put to shame; do not let my enemies exult over me.
My God, I confide in thee; let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.
3 Surely none who wait for You will be put to shame; but those who are faithless without cause will be disgraced.
Yea, none that wait on thee shall be ashamed: they shall be ashamed that deal treacherously without cause.
4 Show me Your ways, O LORD; teach me Your paths.
Make me to know thy ways, O Jehovah; teach me thy paths.
5 Guide me in Your truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; all day long I wait for You.
Make me to walk 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, Your compassion and loving devotion, for they are from age to age.
Remember, Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy loving-kindnesses; for they are from everlasting.
7 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my rebellious acts; remember me according to Your loving devotion, because of Your goodness, O LORD.
Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; according to thy loving-kindness remember thou me, for thy goodness' sake, Jehovah.
8 Good and upright is the LORD; therefore He shows sinners the way.
Good and upright is Jehovah; therefore will he instruct sinners in the way:
9 He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them His way.
The meek will he guide in judgment, and the meek will he teach his way.
10 All the LORD’s ways are loving and faithful to those who keep His covenant and His decrees.
All the paths of Jehovah are loving-kindness and truth for such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
11 For the sake of Your name, O LORD, forgive my iniquity, for it is great.
For thy name's sake, O Jehovah, thou wilt indeed pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.
12 Who is the man who fears the LORD? He will instruct him in the path chosen for him.
What man is he that feareth Jehovah? him will he instruct in the way [that] he should choose.
13 His soul will dwell in prosperity, and his descendants will inherit the land.
His soul shall dwell in prosperity, and his seed shall inherit the earth.
14 The LORD confides in those who fear Him, and reveals His covenant to them.
The secret of Jehovah is with them that fear him, that he may make known his covenant to them.
15 My eyes are always on the LORD, for He will free my feet from the mesh.
Mine eyes are ever toward Jehovah; for he will bring my feet out of the net.
16 Turn to me and be gracious, for I am lonely and afflicted.
Turn toward me, and be gracious unto me; for I am solitary and afflicted.
17 The troubles of my heart increase; free me from my distress.
The troubles of my heart are increased: bring me out of my distresses;
18 Consider my affliction and trouble, and take away all my sins.
Consider mine affliction and my travail, and forgive all my sins.
19 Consider my enemies, for they are many, and they hate me with vicious hatred.
Consider mine enemies, for they are many, and they hate me [with] cruel hatred.
20 Guard my soul and deliver me; let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in You.
Keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I trust in thee.
21 May integrity and uprightness preserve me, because I wait for You.
Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.
22 Redeem Israel, O God, from all its distress.
Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
