Chapter 25

  By David. Unto Thee, O Jehovah, my soul I lift up.  

-

  My God, in Thee I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed, Let not mine enemies exult over me.  

-

  Also let none waiting on Thee be ashamed, Let the treacherous dealers without cause be ashamed.  

-

  Thy ways, O Jehovah, cause me to know, Thy paths teach Thou me.  

-

  Cause me to tread in Thy truth, and teach me, For Thou [art] the God of my salvation, Near Thee I have waited all the day.  

-

  Remember Thy mercies, O Jehovah, And Thy kindnesses, for from the age [are] they.  

-

  Sins of my youth, and my transgressions, Do not Thou remember. According to Thy kindness be mindful of me, For Thy goodness' sake, O Jehovah.  

-

  Good and upright [is] Jehovah, Therefore He directeth sinners in the way.  

-

  He causeth the humble to tread in judgment, And teacheth the humble His way.  

-

  All the paths of Jehovah [are] kindness and truth, To those keeping His covenant, And His testimonies.  

-

  For Thy name's sake, O Jehovah, Thou hast pardoned mine iniquity, for it [is] great.  

-

  Who [is] this -- the man fearing Jehovah? He directeth him in the way He doth choose.  

-

  His soul in good doth remain, And his seed doth possess the land.  

-

  The secret of Jehovah [is] for those fearing Him, And His covenant -- to cause them to know.  

-

  Mine eyes [are] continually unto Jehovah, For He bringeth out from a net my feet.  

-

  Turn Thou unto me, and favour me, For lonely and afflicted [am] I.  

-

  The distresses of my heart have enlarged themselves, From my distresses bring me out.  

-

  See mine affliction and my misery, And bear with all my sins.  

-

  See my enemies, for they have been many, And with violent hatred they have hated me.  

-

  Keep my soul, and deliver me, Let me not be ashamed, for I trusted in Thee.  

-

  Integrity and uprightness do keep me, For I have waited [on] Thee.  

-

  Redeem Israel, O God, from all his distresses!
