< Psalms 25 >

1 A Psalme of David. Unto thee, O Lord, lift I vp my soule.
To you, Yahweh, I lift up my life!
2 My God, I trust in thee: let me not be confounded: let not mine enemies reioyce ouer mee.
My God, I trust in you. Do not let me be humiliated; do not let my enemies rejoice triumphantly over me.
3 So all that hope in thee, shall not be ashamed: but let them be confounded, that transgresse without cause.
May no one who hopes in you be disgraced may those who act treacherously without cause be ashamed!
4 Shew me thy waies, O Lord, and teache me thy paths.
Make known to me your ways, Yahweh; teach me your paths.
5 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.
Guide me into your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; I hope in you all day long.
6 Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies, and thy louing kindnesse: for they haue beene for euer.
Call to mind, Yahweh, your acts of compassion and of covenant faithfulness; for they have always existed.
7 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.
Do not think about the sins of my youth or my rebelliousness; Call me to mind with covenant faithfulness because of your goodness, Yahweh!
8 Gracious and righteous is the Lord: therefore will he teache sinners in the way.
Yahweh is good and upright; therefore he teaches sinners the way.
9 Them that be meeke, will hee guide in iudgement, and teach the humble his way.
He guides the humble in what is right and he teaches them his way.
10 All the pathes of the Lord are mercie and trueth vnto such as keepe his couenant and his testimonies.
All the paths of Yahweh are steadfast love and faithfulness to those who keep his covenant and his solemn commands.
11 For thy Names sake, O Lord, be merciful vnto mine iniquitie, for it is great.
For your name's sake, Yahweh, pardon my sin, for it is great.
12 What man is he that feareth the Lord? him wil he teache the way that hee shall chuse.
Who is the man who fears Yahweh? The Lord will instruct him in the way that he should choose.
13 His soule shall dwell at ease, and his seede shall inherite the land.
His life will go along in goodness; and his descendants will inherit the land.
14 The secrete of the Lord is reueiled to them, that feare him: and his couenant to giue them vnderstanding.
The friendship of Yahweh is for those who honor him, and he makes his covenant known to them.
15 Mine eyes are euer towarde the Lord: for he will bring my feete out of the net.
My eyes are always on Yahweh, for he will free my feet from the net.
16 Turne thy face vnto mee, and haue mercie vpon me: for I am desolate and poore.
Turn toward me and have mercy on me; for I am alone and afflicted.
17 The sorowes of mine heart are enlarged: drawe me out of my troubles.
The troubles of my heart are enlarged; draw me out from my distress!
18 Looke vpon mine affliction and my trauel, and forgiue all my sinnes.
See my affliction and my toils; forgive all my sins.
19 Beholde mine enemies, for they are manie, and they hate me with cruell hatred.
See my enemies, for they are many; they hate me with cruel hatred.
20 Keepe my soule, and deliuer me: let me not be confounded, for I trust in thee.
Protect my life and rescue me; do not let me be humiliated, for I take refuge in you!
21 Let mine vprightnes and equitie preserue me: for mine hope is in thee.
May integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I hope in you.
22 Deliuer Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
Rescue Israel, God, from all of his troubles!
