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.

Tehillim (Psalms) 25
25
1Aleph To You, O יהוה, I lift up my being.
2Bĕt O my Elohim, in You I have put my trust; Let me not be ashamed; Let not my enemies exult over me.
3Gimel Indeed, let no one who waits on You be ashamed; Let those who are treacherous without cause be ashamed.
4Dalet Show me Your ways, O יהוה; Teach me Your paths.
5Hĕ Lead me in Your truth (Waw) and teach me, For You are the Elohim of my deliverance; On You I wait all the day.
6Zayin Remember, O יהוה, Your compassion and Your loving-commitments, For they are from everlasting.
7Ḥet Do not remember the sins of my youth, and my transgressions; According to Your loving-commitment remember me, For Your goodness’ sake, O יהוה.
8Tet Good and straight is יהוה; Therefore He teaches sinners in the way.
9Yod He guides the meek ones in right-ruling, And He teaches the meek ones His way.
10Kaph All the paths of יהוה are loving-commitment and truth, To those who guard His covenant and His witnesses.
11Lamed For Your Name’s sake, O יהוה, You shall pardon my crookedness, though it is great.
12Mem Who, then, is the man that fears יהוה? He teaches him in the way he should choose.
13Nun His life dwells in good, And his seed inherits the earth.
14Sameḵ The secret of יהוה is with those who fear Him, And He makes His covenant known to them.
15Ayin My eyes are ever toward יהוה, For He brings my feet out of the net.
16Pĕ Turn Your face to me, and show me favour, For I am lonely and afflicted.
17Tsadi The distresses of my heart have enlarged; Oh, bring me out of my distresses!
18Rĕsh#Not a Qoph in the Hebrew text, but a Rĕsh. Look on my affliction and my toil, And forgive all my sins.
19Rĕsh See how many my enemies have become; And they hate me with a violent hatred.
20Shin Oh, guard my life, and deliver me; Let me not be ashamed, for I have taken refuge in You.
21Taw Let integrity and straightness guard me, For I have waited for You.
22Redeem Yisra’ĕl, O Elohim, Out of all his distresses!
