| Chapter 25 |
1 |
To you, Yahweh, do I lift up my soul. --
|
2 |
My God, in you have I trusted, Let me not be put to shame. Don't let my enemies triumph over me. --
|
3 |
Yes, no one who waits for you shall be put to shame. They shall be put to shame who deal treacherously without cause. --
|
4 |
Show me your ways, Yahweh. Teach me your paths. --
|
5 |
Guide me in your truth, and teach me, For you are the God of my salvation, I wait for you all day long. --
|
6 |
Yahweh, remember your tender mercies and your lovingkindness, For they are from old times. --
|
7 |
Don't remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions. Remember me according to your lovingkindness, For your goodness' sake, Yahweh. --
|
8 |
Good and upright is Yahweh, Therefore he will instruct sinners in the way. --
|
9 |
He will guide the humble in justice. He will teach the humble his way. --
|
10 |
All the paths of Yahweh are lovingkindness and truth To such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. --
|
11 |
For your name's sake, Yahweh, Pardon my iniquity, for it is great. --
|
12 |
What man is he who fears Yahweh? He shall instruct him in the way that he shall choose. --
|
13 |
His soul shall dwell at ease. His seed shall inherit the land. --
|
14 |
The friendship of Yahweh is with those who fear him. He will show them his covenant. --
|
15 |
My eyes are ever on Yahweh, For he will pluck my feet out of the net. --
|
16 |
Turn to me, and have mercy on me, For I am desolate and afflicted. --
|
17 |
The troubles of my heart are enlarged. Oh bring me out of my distresses. --
|
18 |
Consider my affliction and my travail. Forgive all my sins. --
|
19 |
Consider my enemies, for they are many. They hate me with cruel hatred. --
|
20 |
Oh keep my soul, and deliver me. Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you. --
|
21 |
Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, For I wait for you. --
