A psalm of David
25
📚✭To you, O LORD,I lift up my soul.
2 📚✭O my God, I trust in you.
Do not let me be ashamed;
do not let my enemies
triumph over me.
3 📚Yes, let no one who waits
on you be ashamed.
Let them be ashamed
who transgress
without cause.
4 📚✭Show me 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.
On you I wait all the day.
6 📚Remember, O LORD,
your tender mercies
and your acts of
loving kindness;
for they are from
ancient times.
7 📚✭Remember not the sins
of my youth,
or my transgressions.
According to your mercy
remember me for
your goodness’
sake, O LORD.
8 📚✭Good and upright is
the LORD;
therefore he will teach
sinners in the way.
9 📚✭The meek he will guide
in judgment,
and the meek he will teach
his way.
10 📚All the paths of the LORD
are mercy and truth
to those who keep
his covenant and
his testimonies.
11 📚✭For your name’s sake, O LORD,
pardon my sin;
for it is great.
12 📚✭Who is the man
who fears the LORD?
Him he will teach in the way
that he chooses.
13 📚✭His soul will dwell
in prosperity,
and his offspring will inherit
the earth.
14 📚✭The secret of the LORD is
with those who fear him,
and he will show 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 have mercy
on me,
for I am desolate✭
and afflicted.
17 📚✭The troubles of my heart
have grown large.
Oh, bring me out
of my distresses.
18 📚✭Look at my affliction
and my pain,
and forgive all my sins.
19 📚Consider my enemies,
for they are many,
and they hate me
with cruel hatred.
20 📚Oh, keep my soul,
and deliver me!
Let me not be ashamed,
for I put my trust in you.
21 📚✭Let integrity and uprightness
preserve me,
for I wait on you.
22 📚✭Redeem Israel, O God,
out of all his troubles.
