Psalms 25 : 1 - 22
Chapter 25
1 | To You, O LORD, I lift up my soul.
|
2 | O my God, I trust in You; Let me not be ashamed; Let not my enemies triumph over me.
|
3 | Indeed, let no one who waits on You be ashamed; Let those be ashamed who deal treacherously without cause.
|
4 | Show me Your ways, O LORD; Teach me Your paths.
|
5 | Lead me in Your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my salvation; On You I wait all the day.
|
6 | Remember, O LORD, Your tender mercies and Your lovingkindnesses, For they are from of old.
|
7 | Do not remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; According to Your mercy remember me, For Your goodness' sake, O LORD.
|
8 | Good and upright is the LORD; Therefore He teaches sinners in the way.
|
9 | The humble He guides in justice, And the humble He teaches His way.
|
10 | All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth, To such as keep His covenant and His testimonies.
|
11 | For Your name's sake, O LORD, Pardon my iniquity, for it is great.
|
12 | Who is the man that fears the LORD? Him shall He teach in the way He chooses.
|
13 | He himself shall dwell in prosperity, And his descendants shall inherit the earth.
|
14 | The secret of the LORD is with those who fear Him, And He will show them His covenant.
|
15 | My eyes are ever toward the LORD, For He shall pluck my feet out of the net.
|
16 | Turn Yourself to me, and have mercy on me, For I am desolate and afflicted.
|
17 | The troubles of my heart have enlarged; Bring me out of my distresses!
|
18 | Look on my affliction and my pain, And forgive all my sins.
|
19 | Consider my enemies, for they are many; And they hate me with cruel hatred.
|
20 | Keep my soul, and deliver me; Let me not be ashamed, for I put my trust in You.
|
21 | Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, For I wait for You.
|
22 | Redeem Israel, O God, Out of all their troubles!
