Psalms 25
25
Psalm 25#25:0 Psalm 25 is a poem in Hebrew alphabetical order.
By David.
1To you, O Lord, I lift my soul.
2I trust you, O my God.
Do not let me be put to shame.
Do not let my enemies triumph over me.
3No one who waits for you will ever be put to shame,
but all who are unfaithful will be put to shame.
4Make your ways known to me, O Lord,
and teach me your paths.
5Lead me in your truth and teach me
because you are God, my savior.
I wait all day long for you.
6Remember, O Lord, your compassionate and merciful deeds.
They have existed from eternity.
7Do not remember the sins of my youth or my rebellious ways.
Remember me, O Lord, in keeping with your mercy and your goodness.
8The Lord is good and decent.
That is why he teaches sinners the way they should live.
9He leads humble people to do what is right,
and he teaches them his way.
10Every path of the Lord is ⌞one of⌟ mercy and truth
for those who cling to his promise #25:10 Or “covenant.” and written instructions.
11For the sake of your name, O Lord,
remove my guilt, because it is great.
12Who, then, is this person that fears the Lord?
He is the one whom the Lord will teach which path to choose.
13He will enjoy good things in life,
and his descendants will inherit the land.
14The Lord advises those who fear him.
He reveals to them the intent of his promise.
15My eyes are always on the Lord.
He removes my feet from traps.
16Turn to me, and have pity on me.
I am lonely and oppressed.
17Relieve my troubled heart,
and bring me out of my distress.
18Look at my misery and suffering,
and forgive all my sins.
19See how my enemies have increased in number,
how they have hated me with vicious hatred!
20Protect my life, and rescue me!
Do not let me be put to shame.
I have taken refuge in you.
21Integrity and honesty will protect me because I wait for you.
22Rescue Israel, O God, from all its troubles!

Psalms 25
25
(By David.)
A Prayer for Guidance and Help
1I offer you my heart, Lord God,
2and I trust you.
Don't make me ashamed
or let enemies defeat me.
3Don't disappoint any
of your worshipers,
but disappoint all
deceitful liars.
4Show me your paths
and teach me to follow;
5guide me by your truth
and instruct me.
You keep me safe,
and I always trust you.
6Please, Lord, remember,
you have always
been patient and kind.
7Forget each wrong I did
when I was young.
Show how truly kind you are
and remember me.
8You are honest and merciful,
and you teach sinners
how to follow your path.
9You lead humble people
to do what is right
and to stay on your path.
10In everything you do,
you are kind and faithful
to everyone who keeps
our agreement with you.
11Be true to your name, Lord,
by forgiving each one
of my terrible sins.
12You will show the right path
to all who worship you.
13Then they will have plenty,
and their children
will receive the land.
14Our Lord, you are the friend
of your worshipers,
and you make an agreement
with all of us.
15I always look to you,
because you rescue me
from every trap.
16I am lonely and troubled.
Show that you care
and have pity on me.
17My awful worries keep growing.
Rescue me from sadness.
18See my troubles and misery
and forgive my sins.
19Look at all my enemies!
See how much they hate me.
20I come to you for shelter.
Protect me, keep me safe,
and don't disappoint me.
21I obey you with all my heart,
and I trust you, knowing
that you will save me.
22Our God, please save Israel
from all its troubles.
