Psalms 25
|
Of David. To you, O Lord, my soul is lifted up. | [A Psalm] of David. Unto thee, O Jehovah, do I lift up my soul. |
O my God, I have put my faith in you, let me not be shamed; let not my haters be glorying over me. | O my God, in thee have I trusted, Let me not be put to shame; Let not mine enemies triumph over me. |
Let no servant of yours be put to shame; may those be shamed who are false without cause. | Yea, none that wait for thee shall be put to shame: They shall be put to shame that deal treacherously without cause. |
Make your steps clear to me, O Lord; give me knowledge of your ways. | Show me thy ways, O Jehovah; Teach me thy paths. |
Be my guide and teacher in the true way; for you are the God of my salvation; I am waiting for your word all the day. | Guide me in thy truth, and teach me; For thou art the God of my salvation; For thee do I wait all the day. |
O Lord, keep in mind your pity and your mercies; for they have been from the earliest times. | Remember, O Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindness; For they have been ever of old. |
Do not keep in mind my sins when I was young, or my wrongdoing: let your memory of me be full of mercy, O Lord, because of your righteousness. | Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: According to thy lovingkindness remember thou me, For thy goodness' sake, O Jehovah. |
Good and upright is the Lord: so he will be the teacher of sinners in the way. | Good and upright is Jehovah: Therefore will he instruct sinners in the way. |
He will be an upright guide to the poor in spirit: he will make his way clear to them. | The meek will he guide in justice; And the meek will he teach his way. |
All the ways of the Lord are mercy and good faith for those who keep his agreement and his witness. | All the paths of Jehovah are lovingkindness and truth Unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. |
Because of your name, O Lord, let me have forgiveness for my sin, which is very great. | For thy name's sake, O Jehovah, Pardon mine iniquity, for it is great. |
If a man has the fear of the Lord, the Lord will be his teacher in the way of his pleasure. | What man is he that feareth Jehovah? Him shall he instruct in the way that he shall choose. |
His soul will be full of good things, and his seed will have the earth for its heritage. | His soul shall dwell at ease; And his seed shall inherit the land. |
The secret of the Lord is with those in whose hearts is the fear of him; he will make his agreement clear to them. | The friendship of Jehovah is with them that fear him; And he will show them his covenant. |
My eyes are turned to the Lord at all times; for he will take my feet out of the net. | Mine eyes are ever toward Jehovah; For he will pluck my feet out of the net. |
Be turned to me, and have mercy on me; for I am troubled and have no helper. | Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; For I am desolate and afflicted. |
The troubles of my heart are increased: O take me out of my sorrows. | The troubles of my heart are enlarged: Oh bring thou me out of my distresses. |
Give thought to my grief and my pain; and take away all my sins. | Consider mine affliction and my travail; And forgive all my sins. |
See how those who are against me are increased, for bitter is their hate of me. | Consider mine enemies, for they are many; And they hate me with cruel hatred. |
O keep my soul, and take me out of danger: let me not be shamed, for I have put my faith in you. | Oh keep my soul, and deliver me: Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in thee. |
For my clean and upright ways keep me safe, because my hope is in you. | Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, For I wait for thee. |
Give Israel salvation, O God, out of all his troubles. | Redeem Israel, O God, Out all of his troubles. |
