“1 <<[A Psalm] of David.>> Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul. 2
O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies
triumph over me. 3 Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them
be ashamed which transgress without cause. 4 Shew me thy ways, O LORD;
teach me thy paths. 5 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou [art]
the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day. 6 Remember, O
LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they [have been]
ever of old. 7 Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions:
according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness’ sake, O LORD.”
“8 Good and upright [is] the LORD: therefore will he teach 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 the LORD [are] mercy and truth unto
such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. 11 For thy name’s sake, O
LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it [is] great. 12 What man [is] he that
feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way [that] he shall choose.
13 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.
14 The secret of the LORD [is] with them that fear him; and he will shew
them his covenant.”
“15 Mine eyes [are] ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet
out of the net. 16 Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I [am]
desolate and afflicted. 17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged: [O]
bring thou me out of my distresses. 18 Look upon mine affliction and my
pain; and forgive all my sins. 19 Consider mine enemies; for they are
many; and they hate me with cruel hatred. 20 O keep my soul, and deliver
me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my 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.” (Psalm 25:1-22 AV)
