Psalms 25 / 150
- 1
(Teach Me Your Paths) Of David.
To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
- 2
O my God, in you I trust;
let me not be put to shame;
let not my enemies exult over me.
- 3
Indeed, none who wait for you shall be put to shame;
they shall be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous.
- 4
Make me to know 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;
for you I wait all the day long.
- 6
Remember your mercy, O Lord, and your steadfast love,
for they have been from of old.
- 7
Remember not the sins of my youth or my transgressions;
according to your steadfast love remember me,
for the sake of your goodness, O Lord!
- 8
Good and upright is the Lord;
therefore he instructs sinners in the way.
- 9
He leads the humble in what is right,
and teaches the humble his way.
- 10
All the paths of the Lord are steadfast love and faithfulness,
for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.
- 11
For your name's sake, O Lord,
pardon my guilt, for it is great.
- 12
Who is the man who fears the Lord?
Him will he instruct in the way that he should choose.
- 13
His soul shall abide in well-being,
and his offspring shall inherit the land.
- 14
The friendship of the Lord is for those who fear him,
and he makes known to them his covenant.
- 15
My eyes are ever toward the Lord,
for he will pluck my feet out of the net.
- 16
Turn to me and be gracious to me,
for I am lonely and afflicted.
- 17
The troubles of my heart are enlarged;
bring me out of my distresses.
- 18
Consider my affliction and my trouble,
and forgive all my sins.
- 19
Consider how many are my foes,
and with what violent hatred they hate me.
- 20
Oh, guard my soul, and deliver me!
Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.
- 21
May integrity and uprightness preserve me,
for I wait for you.
- 22
Redeem Israel, O God,
out of all his troubles.
