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
Psalm 25#25:0 Psalm 25 is a poem in Hebrew alphabetical order.
By David.
1To you, O Lord, I lift my soul.
2I trust you, O my God.
Do not let me be put to shame.
Do not let my enemies triumph over me.
3No one who waits for you will ever be put to shame,
but all who are unfaithful will be put to shame.
4Make your ways known to me, O Lord,
and teach me your paths.
5Lead me in your truth and teach me
because you are God, my savior.
I wait all day long for you.
6Remember, O Lord, your compassionate and merciful deeds.
They have existed from eternity.
7Do not remember the sins of my youth or my rebellious ways.
Remember me, O Lord, in keeping with your mercy and your goodness.
8The Lord is good and decent.
That is why he teaches sinners the way they should live.
9He leads humble people to do what is right,
and he teaches them his way.
10Every path of the Lord is ⌞one of⌟ mercy and truth
for those who cling to his promise #25:10 Or “covenant.” and written instructions.
11For the sake of your name, O Lord,
remove my guilt, because it is great.
12Who, then, is this person that fears the Lord?
He is the one whom the Lord will teach which path to choose.
13He will enjoy good things in life,
and his descendants will inherit the land.
14The Lord advises those who fear him.
He reveals to them the intent of his promise.
15My eyes are always on the Lord.
He removes my feet from traps.
16Turn to me, and have pity on me.
I am lonely and oppressed.
17Relieve my troubled heart,
and bring me out of my distress.
18Look at my misery and suffering,
and forgive all my sins.
19See how my enemies have increased in number,
how they have hated me with vicious hatred!
20Protect my life, and rescue me!
Do not let me be put to shame.
I have taken refuge in you.
21Integrity and honesty will protect me because I wait for you.
22Rescue Israel, O God, from all its troubles!
