# Chapter 25
|
|
1 To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
|
|
2 O my God, in you I trust;
|
|
let me not be put to shame;
|
|
let not my enemies exult over me.
|
|
3 Indeed, none who wait for you shall be put to shame;
|
|
they shall be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous.
|
|
4 Make me to know your ways, O Lord;
|
|
teach me your paths.
|
|
5 Lead me in your truth and teach me,
|
|
for you are the God of my salvation;
|
|
for you I wait all the day long.
|
|
6 Remember your mercy, O Lord, and your steadfast love,
|
|
for they have been from of old.
|
|
7 Remember not the sins of my youth or my transgressions;
|
|
according to your steadfast love remember me,
|
|
for the sake of your goodness, O Lord!
|
|
8 Good and upright is the Lord;
|
|
therefore he instructs sinners in the way.
|
|
9 He leads the humble in what is right,
|
|
and teaches the humble his way.
|
|
10 All the paths of the Lord are steadfast love and faithfulness,
|
|
for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.
|
|
11 For your name's sake, O Lord,
|
|
pardon my guilt, for it is great.
|
|
12 Who is the man who fears the Lord?
|
|
Him will he instruct in the way that he should choose.
|
|
13 His soul shall abide in well-being,
|
|
and his offspring shall inherit the land.
|
|
14 The friendship of the Lord is for those who fear him,
|
|
and he makes known to them his covenant.
|
|
15 My eyes are ever toward the Lord,
|
|
for he will pluck my feet out of the net.
|
|
16 Turn to me and be gracious to me,
|
|
for I am lonely and afflicted.
|
|
17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged;
|
|
bring me out of my distresses.
|
|
18 Consider my affliction and my trouble,
|
|
and forgive all my sins.
|
|
19 Consider how many are my foes,
|
|
and with what violent hatred they hate me.
|
|
20 Oh, guard my soul, and deliver me!
|
|
Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.
|
|
21 May integrity and uprightness preserve me,
|
|
for I wait for you.
|
|
22 Redeem Israel, O God,
|
|
out of all his troubles. |
