Psalms 25:1 – 25:22

  1 [A Psalm] of David. Unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
  2 O my God, I trust in thee: 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.
  4 Shew me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths.
  5 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou [art] the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.
  6 Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they [have been] ever 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 Lord.
  8 Good and upright [is] the Lord: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.
  9 The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.
  10 All the paths of the Lord [are] mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
  11 For thy name’s sake, O Lord, pardon mine iniquity; for it [is] great.
  12 What man [is] he that feareth the Lord? him shall he teach in the way [that] he shall choose.
  13 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.
  14 The secret of the Lord [is] with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.
  15 Mine eyes [are] ever toward the Lord; 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.
  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 God, out of all his troubles.
