Chapter 25

  A Psalm of David. To thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.  

-

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

-

  Also, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed who transgress without cause.  

-

  Show 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 loving kindnesses; 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 to such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.  

-

  For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon my 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 show them his covenant.  

-

  My eyes are ever towards the LORD; for he will pluck my feet out of the net.  

-

  Turn thee to 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 my affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.  

-

  Consider my 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.
