< Psalms 25 >
1 Unto the end, a psalm for David. To thee, O Lord, have I lifted up my soul.
A Psalme of David. Unto thee, O Lord, lift I vp my soule.
2 In thee, O my God, I put my trust; let me not be ashamed.
My God, I trust in thee: let me not be confounded: let not mine enemies reioyce ouer mee.
3 Neither let my enemies laugh at me: for none of them that wait on thee shall be confounded.
So all that hope in thee, shall not be ashamed: but let them be confounded, that transgresse without cause.
4 Let all them be confounded that act unjust things without cause. Shew, O Lord, thy ways to me, and teach me thy paths.
Shew me thy waies, O Lord, and teache me thy paths.
5 Direct me in thy truth, and teach me; for thou art God my Saviour; and on thee have I waited all the day long.
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, thy bowels of compassion; and thy mercies that are from the beginning of the world.
Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies, and thy louing kindnesse: for they haue beene for euer.
7 The sins of my youth and my ignorances do not remember. According to thy mercy remember thou me: for thy goodness’ sake, 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 The Lord is sweet and righteous: therefore he will give a law to sinners in the way.
Gracious and righteous is the Lord: therefore will he teache sinners in the way.
9 He will guide the mild in judgment: he will teach the meek his ways.
Them that be meeke, will hee guide in iudgement, and teach the humble his way.
10 All the ways of the Lord are mercy and truth, to them that seek after his covenant and his testimonies.
All the pathes of the Lord are mercie and trueth vnto such as keepe his couenant and his testimonies.
11 For thy name’s sake, O Lord, thou wilt pardon my sin: for it is great.
For thy Names sake, O Lord, be merciful vnto mine iniquitie, for it is great.
12 Who is the man that feareth the Lord? He hath appointed him a law in the way he hath chosen.
What man is he that feareth the Lord? him wil he teache the way that hee shall chuse.
13 His soul shall dwell in good things: and his seed shall inherit the land.
His soule shall dwell at ease, and his seede shall inherite the land.
14 The Lord is a firmament to them that fear him: and his covenant shall be made manifest 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 ever towards the Lord: for he shall pluck my feet out of the snare.
Mine eyes are euer towarde the Lord: for he will bring my feete out of the net.
16 Look thou upon me, and have mercy on me; for I am alone and poor.
Turne thy face vnto mee, and haue mercie vpon me: for I am desolate and poore.
17 The troubles of my heart are multiplied: deliver me from my necessities.
The sorowes of mine heart are enlarged: drawe me out of my troubles.
18 See my abjection and my labour; and forgive me all my sins.
Looke vpon mine affliction and my trauel, and forgiue all my sinnes.
19 Consider my enemies for they are multiplied, and have hated me with an unjust hatred.
Beholde mine enemies, for they are manie, and they hate me with cruell hatred.
20 Keep thou my soul, and deliver me: I shall not be ashamed, for I have hoped in thee.
Keepe my soule, and deliuer me: let me not be confounded, for I trust in thee.
21 The innocent and the upright have adhered to me: because I have waited on thee.
Let mine vprightnes and equitie preserue me: for mine hope is in thee.
22 Deliver Israel, O God, from all his tribulations.
Deliuer Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
