Psalms 25

Teach Me Your Paths Of David. [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. (ESV)
