PSALM 25
First Version
Meter: 6,6,8,6
1To thee I lift my soul:
2O Lord, I trust in thee:
My God, let me not be asham'd,
nor foes triumph o'er me.
3Let none that wait on thee
be put to shame at all;
But those that without cause transgress,
let shame upon them fall.
4Shew me thy ways, O Lord;
thy paths, O teach thou me:
5And do thou lead me in thy truth,
therein my teacher be:
For thou art God that dost
to me salvation send,
And I upon thee all the day
expecting do attend.
6Thy tender mercies, Lord,
I pray thee to remember,
And loving-kindnesses; for they
have been of old for ever.
7My sins and faults of youth
do thou, O Lord, forget:
After thy mercy think on me,
and for thy goodness great.
8God good and upright is:
the way he'll sinners show.
9The meek in judgment he will guide,
and make his path to know.
10The whole paths of the Lord
are truth and mercy sure,
To those that do his cov'nant keep,
and testimonies pure.
11Now, for thine own name's sake,
O Lord, I thee entreat
To pardon mine iniquity;
for it is very great.
12What man is he that fears
the Lord, and doth him serve?
Him shall he teach the way that he
shall choose, and still observe.
13His soul shall dwell at ease;
and his posterity
Shall flourish still, and of the earth
inheritors shall be.
14With those that fear him is
the secret of the Lord;
The knowledge of his covenant
he will to them afford.
15Mine eyes upon the Lord
continually are set:
For he it is that shall bring forth
my feet out of the net.
16Turn unto me thy face,
and to me mercy show;
Because that I am desolate,
and am brought very low.
17My heart's griefs are increas'd:
me from distress relieve.
18See mine affliction and my pain,
and all my sins forgive.
19Consider thou my foes,
because they many are;
And it a cruel hatred is
which they against me bear.
20O do thou keep my soul,
do thou deliver me:
And let me never be asham'd,
because I trust in thee.
21Let uprightness and truth
keep me, who thee attend.
22Redemption, Lord, to Israel
from all his troubles send.

Psalms 25
25
A Psalm of David.
1Unto thee, O Jehovah, do I lift up my soul.
2O my God, in thee have I trusted,
Let me not be put to shame;
Let not mine enemies triumph over me.
3Yea, none that wait for thee shall be put to shame:
They shall be put to shame that deal treacherously without cause.
4Show me thy ways, O Jehovah;
Teach me thy paths.
5Guide me in thy truth, and teach me;
For thou art the God of my salvation;
For thee do I wait all the day.
6Remember, O Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindness;
For they have been ever of old.
7Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions:
According to thy lovingkindness remember thou me,
For thy goodness’ sake, O Jehovah.
8Good and upright is Jehovah:
Therefore will he instruct sinners in the way.
9The meek will he guide in justice;
And the meek will he teach his way.
10All the paths of Jehovah are lovingkindness and truth
Unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
11For thy name’s sake, O Jehovah,
Pardon mine iniquity, for it is great.
12What man is he that feareth Jehovah?
Him shall he instruct in the way that he shall choose.
13His soul shall dwell at ease;
And his seed shall inherit the land.
14The friendship of Jehovah is with them that fear him;
And he will show them his covenant.
15Mine eyes are ever toward Jehovah;
For he will pluck my feet out of the net.
16Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me;
For I am desolate and afflicted.
17The troubles of my heart are enlarged:
Oh bring thou me out of my distresses.
18Consider mine affliction and my travail;
And forgive all my sins.
19Consider mine enemies, for they are many;
And they hate me with cruel hatred.
20Oh keep my soul, and deliver me:
Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in thee.
21Let integrity and uprightness preserve me,
For I wait for thee.
22Redeem Israel, O God,
Out of all his troubles.
