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.

PSALM 25
1 The song of David. Lord, to thee I have raised my soul;
2my God, I trust in thee, be I not ashamed. Neither mine enemies scorn me;
3for all men that suffer thee shall not be shamed. All men doing wicked things superfluously; be they shamed.
4Lord, show thou thy ways to me; and teach thou me thy paths.
5Dress thou me in thy truth, and teach thou me, for thou art God, my saviour; and I suffered thee all day.
6Lord, have thou mind of thy merciful doings; and of thy mercies that be from the world.
7Have thou not mind on the tres-passes of my youth; and on mine unknowings. Thou, Lord, have mind on me by thy mercy; for thy goodness.
8The Lord is sweet and rightful; for this cause he shall give a law to men trespassing in the way.
9He shall dress meek men in doom; he shall teach mild men his ways.
10All the ways of the Lord be mercy and truth; to men seeking his testament, and his witnessings.
11Lord, for thy name, thou shalt do mercy to my sin; for it is much.
12Who is a man, that dreadeth the Lord? he ordaineth to him a law in the way which he should choose.
13His soul shall dwell in goods; and his seed shall inherit the land.
14The Lord is a firmness to men dreading him; and his testament is, that it be showed to them.
15Mine eyes be ever[more] toward the Lord; for he shall pull away [or pull up] my feet from the snare.
16Behold thou to me, and have thou mercy on me; for I am one alone and poor.
17The tribulations of mine heart be multiplied; deliver thou me of my needs.
18See thou my meekness and my travail; and forgive thou all my tres-passes.
19Behold thou mine enemies, for they be multiplied; and they hate me by wicked hatred.
20Keep thou my soul, and deliver me; be I not ashamed, for I hoped in thee.
21Innocent men and rightful cleaved to me; for I suffered thee.
22God, deliver thou Israel; from all his tribulations.
