1[1] Of David. To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul. (Ps 24:4; Ps 86:4; Ps 143:8; La 3:41)2O my God, in you I trust; let me not be put to shame; let not my enemies exult over me. (Ps 11:1; Ps 13:4; Ps 25:20; Ps 31:1; Ps 31:17; Ps 71:1)3Indeed, none who wait for you shall be put to shame; they shall be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous. (Ps 59:3; Isa 49:23; Jer 3:20; Ro 5:5; Php 1:20)4Make me to know your ways, O Lord; teach me your paths. (Ex 33:13; Ps 5:8; Ps 27:11; Ps 86:11; Ps 119:35; Ps 143:8; Ps 143:10)5Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all the day long. (Ps 26:3; Ps 86:11)6Remember your mercy, O Lord, and your steadfast love, for they have been from of old. (Ge 8:1; Ge 9:15; Ge 19:29; Ps 51:1; Ps 103:17; Isa 63:15)7Remember not the sins of my youth or my transgressions; according to your steadfast love remember me, for the sake of your goodness, O Lord! (Job 13:26; Job 20:11; Ps 51:1; Jer 3:25)8Good and upright is the Lord; therefore he instructs sinners in the way. (Ps 32:8; Ps 100:5)9He leads the humble in what is right, and teaches the humble his way.10All the paths of the Lord are steadfast love and faithfulness, for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies. (Joh 1:17)11For your name’s sake, O Lord, pardon my guilt, for it is great. (Ps 23:3; Ro 5:20)12Who is the man who fears the Lord? Him will he instruct in the way that he should choose. (Ps 25:8)13His soul shall abide in well-being, and his offspring shall inherit the land. (Ps 37:9; Ps 112:2; Pr 1:33; Pr 19:23)14The friendship[2] of the Lord is for those who fear him, and he makes known to them his covenant. (Job 29:4; Am 3:7)15My eyes are ever toward the Lord, for he will pluck my feet out of the net. (2Ch 20:12; Ps 31:4; Ps 123:1; Ps 141:8)16Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. (Ps 69:16; Ps 86:16; Ps 119:132)17The troubles of my heart are enlarged; bring me out of my distresses.18Consider my affliction and my trouble, and forgive all my sins. (Job 10:15)19Consider how many are my foes, and with what violent hatred they hate me.20Oh, guard my soul, and deliver me! Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you. (Ps 25:2)21May integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you.22Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles. (2Sa 4:9; Ps 34:22; Ps 71:23; Ps 130:8; La 3:58)
1In you, Lord my God, I put my trust.2I trust in you; do not let me be put to shame, nor let my enemies triumph over me.3No-one who hopes in you will ever be put to shame, but shame will come on those who are treacherous without cause.4Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths.5Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Saviour, and my hope is in you all day long.6Remember, Lord, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old.7Do not remember the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me, for you, Lord, are good.8Good and upright is the Lord; therefore he instructs sinners in his ways.9He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way.10All the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful towards those who keep the demands of his covenant.11For the sake of your name, Lord, forgive my iniquity, though it is great.12Who, then, are those who fear the Lord? He will instruct them in the ways they should choose.[1]13They will spend their days in prosperity, and their descendants will inherit the land.14The Lord confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them.15My eyes are ever on the Lord, for only he will release my feet from the snare.16Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted.17Relieve the troubles of my heart and free me from my anguish.18Look on my affliction and my distress and take away all my sins.19See how numerous are my enemies and how fiercely they hate me!20Guard my life and rescue me; do not let me be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.21May integrity and uprightness protect me, because my hope, Lord,[2] is in you.22Deliver Israel, O God, from all their troubles!
Psalm 25
King James Version
1A Psalm of David. Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.2O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.3Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.4Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.5Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.6Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.7Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness'sake, O LORD.8Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.9The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.10All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.11For thy name' sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.12What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.13His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.14The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.15Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.16Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted.17The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses.18Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.19Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.20O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.21Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.22Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
1In you, LORD my God, I put my trust.2I trust in you. Don’t let me be put to shame. Don’t let my enemies win the battle over me.3Those who put their hope in you will never be put to shame. But those who lie to other people for no reason will be put to shame.4LORD, show me your ways. Teach me how to follow you.5Guide me in your truth. Teach me. You are God my Saviour. I put my hope in you all day long.6LORD, remember your great mercy and love. You have shown them to your people for a long time.7Don’t remember the sins I committed when I was young. Don’t remember how often I refused to obey you. Remember me because you love me. LORD, you are good.8The LORD is honest and good. He teaches sinners to walk in his ways.9He shows those who aren’t proud how to do what is right. He teaches them his ways.10All the LORD’s ways are loving and faithful towards those who obey what his covenant commands.11LORD, be true to your name. Forgive my sin, even though it is great.12Who are the people who have respect for the LORD? God will teach them the ways they should choose.13Things will always go well for them. Their children will be given the land.14The LORD shares his plans with those who have respect for him. He makes his covenant known to them.15My eyes always look to the LORD. He alone can set my feet free from the trap.16Turn to me and help me. I am lonely and hurting.17Take away the troubles of my heart. Set me free from my great pain.18Look at how I’m hurting! See how much I suffer! Take away all my sins.19Look at how many enemies I have! See how terrible their hatred is for me!20Guard my life. Save me. Don’t let me be put to shame. I go to you for safety.21May my honest and good life keep me safe. LORD, I have put my hope in you.22God, set Israel free from all their troubles!
