Psalms 25

Prayer for protection, guidance, and pardon.

O my God, in thee have I trusted,

Yea, none that wait for thee shall be put to shame:

Show me thy ways, O Jehovah;

Guide me in thy truth, and teach me;

Remember, O Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindness;

Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions:

Good and upright is Jehovah:

The meek will he guide in justice;

All the paths of Jehovah are lovingkindness and truth

For thy name’s sake, O Jehovah,

What man is he that feareth Jehovah?

His soul shall dwell at ease;

The friendship of Jehovah is with them that fear him;

Mine eyes are ever toward Jehovah;

Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me;

The troubles of my heart are enlarged:

Consider mine affliction and my travail;

Consider mine enemies, for they are many;

Oh keep my soul, and deliver me:

Let integrity and uprightness preserve me,

Redeem Israel, O God,
