Psalms 25
25
By David.
1 To you, LORD, I lift up my soul.
2My God, I have trusted in you.
Don’t let me be shamed.
Don’t let my enemies triumph over me.
3 Yes, no one who waits for you will be shamed.
They will be shamed who deal treacherously without cause.
4 Show me your ways, LORD.
Teach me your paths.
5 Guide me in your truth, and teach me,
for you are the God of my salvation.
I wait for you all day long.
6 LORD, remember your tender mercies and your loving kindness,
for they are from old times.
7Don’t remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions.
Remember me according to your loving kindness,
for your goodness’ sake, LORD.
8 Good and upright is the LORD,
therefore he will instruct sinners in the way.
9He will guide the humble in justice.
He will teach the humble his way.
10 All the paths of the LORD are loving kindness and truth
to such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
11 For your name’s sake, LORD,
pardon my iniquity, for it is great.
12 What man is he who fears the LORD?
He shall instruct him in the way that he shall choose.
13 His soul will dwell at ease.
His offspring will inherit the land.
14 The friendship of the LORD is with those who fear him.
He will show them his covenant.
15 My eyes are ever on the LORD,
for he will pluck my feet out of the net.
16 Turn to me, and have mercy on me,
for I am desolate and afflicted.
17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged.
Oh bring me out of my distresses.
18 Consider my affliction and my travail.
Forgive all my sins.
19 Consider my enemies, for they are many.
They hate me with cruel hatred.
20Oh keep my soul, and deliver me.
Let me not be disappointed, for I take refuge in you.
21Let integrity and uprightness preserve me,
for I wait for you.
22God, redeem Israel
out of all his troubles.

Psalms 25
25
A Prayer for Guidance and Protection#Ps 25 Hebrew title: By David.
1To you, O LORD, I offer my prayer;
2in you, my God, I trust.
Save me from the shame of defeat;
don't let my enemies gloat over me!
3Defeat does not come to those who trust in you,
but to those who are quick to rebel against you.
4Teach me your ways, O LORD;
make them known to me.
5Teach me to live according to your truth,
for you are my God, who saves me.
I always trust in you.
6Remember, O LORD, your kindness and constant love
which you have shown from long ago.
7Forgive the sins and errors of my youth.
In your constant love and goodness,
remember me, LORD!
8Because the LORD is righteous and good,
he teaches sinners the path they should follow.
9He leads the humble in the right way
and teaches them his will.
10With faithfulness and love he leads
all who keep his covenant and obey his commands.
11Keep your promise, LORD, and forgive my sins,
for they are many.
12Those who have reverence for the LORD
will learn from him the path they should follow.
13They will always be prosperous,
and their children will possess the land.
14The LORD is the friend of those who obey him
and he affirms his covenant with them.
15I look to the LORD for help at all times,
and he rescues me from danger.
16Turn to me, LORD, and be merciful to me,
because I am lonely and weak.
17Relieve me of my worries
and save me from all my troubles.
18Consider my distress and suffering
and forgive all my sins.
19See how many enemies I have;
see how much they hate me.
20Protect me and save me;
keep me from defeat.
I come to you for safety.
21May my goodness and honesty preserve me,
because I trust in you.
22From all their troubles, O God,
save your people Israel!
