PSALM 25
A Psalm of David.
1Unto thee, Jehovah, do I lift up my soul. 2My God#GodHebrew: Elohim I confide in thee; let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me. 3Yea, none that wait on thee shall be ashamed: they shall be ashamed that deal treacherously without cause. 4Make me to know thy ways, O Jehovah; teach me thy paths. 5Make me to walk in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God#GodHebrew: Elohim of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day. 6Remember, Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy loving-kindnesses; for they are from everlasting. 7Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; according to thy loving-kindness remember thou me, for thy goodness' sake, Jehovah.
8Good and upright is Jehovah; therefore will he instruct sinners in the way: 9The meek will he guide in judgment, and the meek will he teach his way. 10All the paths of Jehovah are loving-kindness and truth for such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. 11For thy name's sake, O Jehovah, thou wilt indeed pardon mine iniquity; for it is great. 12What man is he that feareth Jehovah? him will he instruct in the way that he should choose. 13His soul shall dwell in prosperity, and his seed shall inherit the earth. 14The secret of Jehovah is with them that fear him, that he may make known his covenant to them.
15Mine eyes are ever toward Jehovah; for he will bring my feet out of the net. 16Turn toward me, and be gracious unto me; for I am solitary and afflicted. 17The troubles of my heart are increased: bring me out of my distresses; 18Consider mine affliction and my travail, and forgive all my sins. 19Consider mine enemies, for they are many, and they hate me with cruel hatred. 20Keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I trust in thee. 21Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee. 22Redeem Israel, O God#GodHebrew: Elohim out of all his troubles.

Teach Me Your Paths
# 25:1 This psalm is an acrostic poem, each verse beginning with the successive letters of the Hebrew alphabet Of David.
1To you, O Lord, I #Ps. 86:4; 143:8; Lam. 3:41; [Ps. 24:4]lift up my soul.
2O my God, in you I #See Ps. 11:1 trust;
# ver. 20; Ps. 31:1, 17; 71:1 let me not be put to shame;
# [Ps. 13:4] let not my enemies exult over me.
3Indeed, #Isa. 49:23; [Rom. 5:5; Phil. 1:20] none who wait for you shall be put to shame;
they shall be ashamed who are #[Ps. 59:3, 4] wantonly #[Jer. 3:20]treacherous.
4 #
Ps. 27:11; 86:11; 143:8, 10; Ex. 33:13; [Ps. 5:8; 119:35] Make me to know your ways, O Lord;
teach me your paths.
5Lead me in your #Ps. 26:3; 86:11truth and teach me,
for you are the God of my salvation;
for you I wait all the day long.
6Remember your #Ps. 51:1; [Ps. 103:17; Isa. 63:15] mercy, O Lord, and your steadfast love,
# [Gen. 8:1; 9:15; 19:29] for they have been from of old.
7Remember not #Job 13:26; 20:11; Jer. 3:25 the sins of my youth or my transgressions;
according to your #Ps. 51:1steadfast love remember me,
for the sake of your goodness, O Lord!
8 #
Ps. 100:5 Good and upright is the Lord;
therefore he #Ps. 32:8instructs sinners in the way.
9He leads the humble in what is right,
and teaches the humble his way.
10All the paths of the Lord are #[John 1:17]steadfast love and faithfulness,
for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.
11For your #See Ps. 23:3 name’s sake, O Lord,
pardon my guilt, for it is #[Rom. 5:20]great.
12Who is the man who fears the Lord?
Him #[See ver. 8 above]will he instruct in the way that he should choose.
13His soul shall #[Prov. 1:33; 19:23] abide in well-being,
and his #Ps. 112:2 offspring #See Ps. 37:9shall inherit the land.
14 # [Amos 3:7; See Job 29:4] The friendship#25:14 Or The secret counsel of the Lord is for those who fear him,
and he makes known to them his covenant.
15My #Ps. 123:1, 2; 141:8; [2 Chr. 20:12] eyes are ever toward the Lord,
for he will #Ps. 31:4pluck my feet out of the net.
16 #
Ps. 69:16; 86:16; 119:132 Turn to me and be gracious to me,
for I am lonely and afflicted.
17The troubles of my heart are enlarged;
bring me out of my distresses.
18 # [Job 10:15] Consider my affliction and my trouble,
and forgive all my sins.
19Consider how many are my foes,
and with what violent hatred they hate me.
20Oh, guard my soul, and deliver me!
# See ver. 2 Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.
21May integrity and uprightness preserve me,
for I wait for you.
22 #
Ps. 34:22; 71:23; 130:8; Lam. 3:58; [2 Sam. 4:9] Redeem Israel, O God,
out of all his troubles.
