Psalms 25

1 Unto thee, O YHWH, do I lift up my soul.

2 O my Elohim, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine 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, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.

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

4 Shew me thy ways, O YHWH; teach me thy paths.

5 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the Elohim of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.

6 Remember, O YHWH, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.

Remember, O LORD, Thy compassions and Thy mercies; for they have been from of old.

7 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O YHWH.

Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; according to Thy mercy remember Thou me, for Thy goodness' sake, O LORD.

8 Good and upright is YHWH: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.

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

9 The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.

He guideth The humble in justice; and He teacheth the humble His way.

10 All the paths of YHWH are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

11 For thy name's sake, O YHWH, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.

12 What man is he that feareth YHWH? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.

14 The secret of YHWH is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.

15 Mine eyes are ever toward YHWH; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.

16 Turn thee unto 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.

18 Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.

19 Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.

20 O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.

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

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

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