Chapter 25

  [A Psalm] of David. Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.  

-

  O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.  

-

  Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.  

-

  Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.  

-

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

-

  Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they [have been] ever of old.  

-

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

-

  Good and upright [is] the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.  

-

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

-

  All the paths of the LORD [are] mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.  

-

  For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it [is] great.  

-

  What man [is] he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way [that] he shall choose.  

-

  His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.  

-

  The secret of the LORD [is] with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.  

-

  Mine eyes [are] ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.  

-

  Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I [am] desolate and afflicted.  

-

  The troubles of my heart are enlarged: [O] bring thou me out of my distresses.  

-

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

-

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

-

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

-

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

-

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