Psalms 25:1-12

¹A Psalm of David. Unto thee, Jehovah, do I lift up my soul.

²My God, I confide in thee; let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.

³Yea, none that wait on thee shall be ashamed: they shall be ashamed that deal treacherously without cause.

⁴Make me to know thy ways, O Jehovah; teach me thy paths.

⁵Make me to walk in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.

⁶Remember, Jehovah, thy tender mercies and thy loving-kindnesses; for they are from everlasting.

⁷Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; according to thy loving-kindness remember thou me, for thy goodness' sake, Jehovah.

⁸Good and upright is Jehovah; therefore will he instruct sinners in the way:

⁹The meek will he guide in judgment, and the meek will he teach his way.

¹⁰All the paths of Jehovah are loving-kindness and truth for such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

¹¹For thy name's sake, O Jehovah, thou wilt indeed pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.

¹²What man is he that feareth Jehovah? him will he instruct in the way that he should choose.
