Psalm 25 1To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul; my God, I put my trust in you;* let me not be humiliated, nor let my enemies triumph over me. 2Let none who look to you be put to shame; * let the treacherous be disappointed in their schemes. 3Show me your ways, O LORD,* and teach me your paths. 4Lead me in your truth and teach me,* for you are the God of my salvation; in you have I trusted all the day long. 5Remember, O LORD, your compassion and love, * for they are from everlasting. 6Remember not the sins of my youth and my transgressions;* remember me according to your love and for the sake of your goodness, O LORD. 7Gracious and upright is the LORD;* therefore he teaches sinners in his way. 8He guides the humble in doing right * and teaches his way to the lowly. 9All the paths of the LORD are love and faithfulness * to those who keep his covenant and his testimonies. 10For your Name's sake, O LORD,* forgive my sin, for it is great. 11Who are they who fear the LORD? * he will teach them the way that they should choose. 12They shall dwell in prosperity,* and their offspring shall inherit the land. 13The LORD is a friend to those who fear him * and will show them his covenant. 14My eyes are ever looking to the LORD,* for he shall pluck my feet out of the net. 15Turn to me and have pity on me,* for I am left alone and in misery. 16The sorrows of my heart have increased;* bring me out of my troubles. 17Look upon my adversity and misery * and forgive me all my sin. 18Look upon my enemies, for they are many, * and they bear a violent hatred against me. 19Protect my life and deliver me;* let me not be put to shame, for I have trusted in you. 20Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, * for my hope has been in you. 21Deliver Israel, O God,* out of all his troubles.
