Psalms 25

1 Of David. To You, O LORD, I lift up my soul;

A Psalme of David. Unto thee, O Lord, lift I vp my soule.

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 trust in thee: let me not be confounded: let not mine enemies reioyce ouer mee.

3 Surely none who wait for You will be put to shame; but those who are faithless without cause will be disgraced.

So all that hope in thee, shall not be ashamed: but let them be confounded, that transgresse without cause.

4 Show me Your ways, O LORD; teach me Your paths.

Shew me thy waies, O Lord, and teache 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.

Leade me foorth in thy trueth, and teache me: for thou art the God of my saluation: in thee doe I trust all the day.

6 Remember, O LORD, Your compassion and loving devotion, for they are from age to age.

Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies, and thy louing kindnesse: for they haue beene for euer.

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 sinnes of my youth, nor my rebellions, but according to thy kindenesse remember thou me, euen for thy goodnesse sake, O Lord.

8 Good and upright is the LORD; therefore He shows sinners the way.

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

9 He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them His way.

Them that be meeke, will hee guide in iudgement, and teach the humble his way.

10 All the LORD’s ways are loving and faithful to those who keep His covenant and His decrees.

All the pathes of the Lord are mercie and trueth vnto such as keepe his couenant and his testimonies.

11 For the sake of Your name, O LORD, forgive my iniquity, for it is great.

For thy Names sake, O Lord, be merciful vnto mine iniquitie, 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 the Lord? him wil he teache the way that hee shall chuse.

13 His soul will dwell in prosperity, and his descendants will inherit the land.

His soule shall dwell at ease, and his seede shall inherite the land.

14 The LORD confides in those who fear Him, and reveals His covenant to them.

The secrete of the Lord is reueiled to them, that feare him: and his couenant to giue them vnderstanding.

15 My eyes are always on the LORD, for He will free my feet from the mesh.

Mine eyes are euer towarde the Lord: for he will bring my feete out of the net.

16 Turn to me and be gracious, for I am lonely and afflicted.

Turne thy face vnto mee, and haue mercie vpon me: for I am desolate and poore.

17 The troubles of my heart increase; free me from my distress.

The sorowes of mine heart are enlarged: drawe me out of my troubles.

18 Consider my affliction and trouble, and take away all my sins.

Looke vpon mine affliction and my trauel, and forgiue all my sinnes.

19 Consider my enemies, for they are many, and they hate me with vicious hatred.

Beholde mine enemies, for they are manie, and they hate me with cruell hatred.

20 Guard my soul and deliver me; let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in You.

Keepe my soule, and deliuer me: let me not be confounded, for I trust in thee.

21 May integrity and uprightness preserve me, because I wait for You.

Let mine vprightnes and equitie preserue me: for mine hope is in thee.

22 Redeem Israel, O God, from all its distress.

Deliuer Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
