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
By David.
1Unto Thee, O Jehovah, my soul I lift up.
2My God, in Thee I have trusted, Let me not be ashamed, Let not mine enemies exult over me.
3Also let none waiting on Thee be ashamed, Let the treacherous dealers without cause be ashamed.
4Thy ways, O Jehovah, cause me to know, Thy paths teach Thou me.
5Cause me to tread in Thy truth, and teach me, For Thou [art] the God of my salvation, Near Thee I have waited all the day.
6Remember Thy mercies, O Jehovah, And Thy kindnesses, for from the age [are] they.
7Sins of my youth, and my transgressions, Do not Thou remember. According to Thy kindness be mindful of me, For Thy goodness' sake, O Jehovah.
8Good and upright [is] Jehovah, Therefore He directeth sinners in the way.
9He causeth the humble to tread in judgment, And teacheth the humble His way.
10All the paths of Jehovah [are] kindness and truth, To those keeping His covenant, And His testimonies.
11For Thy name's sake, O Jehovah, Thou hast pardoned mine iniquity, for it [is] great.
12Who [is] this — the man fearing Jehovah? He directeth him in the way He doth choose.
13His soul in good doth remain, And his seed doth possess the land.
14The secret of Jehovah [is] for those fearing Him, And His covenant — to cause them to know.
15Mine eyes [are] continually unto Jehovah, For He bringeth out from a net my feet.
16Turn Thou unto me, and favour me, For lonely and afflicted [am] I.
17The distresses of my heart have enlarged themselves, From my distresses bring me out.
18See mine affliction and my misery, And bear with all my sins.
19See my enemies, for they have been many, And with violent hatred they have hated me.
20Keep my soul, and deliver me, Let me not be ashamed, for I trusted in Thee.
21Integrity and uprightness do keep me, For I have waited [on] Thee.
22Redeem Israel, O God, from all his distresses!
