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.

25
A Prayer for God to Guide
Of David.
1Lord, I give myself to you.
2My God, I trust you.
Do not let me be disgraced.
Do not let my enemies laugh at me.
3No one who trusts you will be disgraced.
But those who sin without excuse will be disgraced.
4Lord, tell me your ways.
Show me how to live.
5Guide me in your truth.
Teach me, my God, my Savior.
I trust you all day long.
6Lord, remember your mercy and love.
You have shown them since long ago.
7Do not remember the sins
and wrong things I did when I was young.
But remember to love me always
because you are good, Lord.
8The Lord is good and right.
He points sinners to the right way.
9He shows those who are not proud how to do right.
He teaches them his ways.
10All the Lord’s ways are loving and true
for those who follow the demands of his agreement.
11For the sake of your name, Lord,
forgive my many sins.
12Is there someone who worships the Lord?
The Lord will point him to the best way.
13He will enjoy a good life.
His children will inherit the land.
14The Lord tells his secrets to those who respect him.
He tells them about his agreement.
15My eyes are always looking to the Lord for help.
He will keep me from any traps.
16Turn to me and be kind to me.
I am lonely and hurting.
17My troubles have grown larger.
Free me from my problems.
18Look at my suffering and troubles.
Take away all my sins.
19Look at how many enemies I have!
See how much they hate me!
20Protect me and save me.
I trust you.
Do not let me be disgraced.
21My hope is in you.
So may goodness and honesty guard me.
22God, save Israel from all their troubles!
