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