Psalms 25
Lead Me in Your Truth
1 To You, O Yahweh, I (C1)lift up my soul.
2 O my God, in You (C1)I trust,
Do not let me (C2)be ashamed;
Do not let my (C3)enemies exult over me.
3 Indeed, let (C1)none who hope in You be ashamed;
Let those who (C2)deal treacherously without cause be ashamed.
4 (C1)Make me know Your ways, O Yahweh;
Teach me Your paths.
5 Lead me in (C1)Your truth and teach me,
For You are the (C2)God of my salvation;
In You I (C3)hope all the day.
6 (C1)Remember, O Yahweh, Your compassion and Your lovingkindnesses,
For they have been (F1)(C2)from of old.
7 Do not remember the (C1)sins of my youth or my transgressions;
(C2)According to Your lovingkindness remember me,
For the sake of Your (C3)goodness, O Yahweh.
8 (C1)Good and (C2)upright is Yahweh;
Therefore He (C3)instructs sinners in the way.
9 May He (C1)lead the (F1)humble in justice,
And may He (C2)teach the (F1)humble His way.
10 All the paths of Yahweh are (C1)lovingkindness and truth
To (C2)those who guard His covenant and His testimonies.
11 For (C1)Your name's sake, O Yahweh,
(C2)Pardon my iniquity, for it is great.
12 Who is the man who (C1)fears Yahweh?
He will (C2)instruct him in the way he should choose.
13 His soul will (C1)abide in goodness,
And his seed will (C2)inherit the (F1)land.
14 The (F1)(C1)secret of Yahweh is for those who fear Him,
(F2)And He will (C2)make them know His covenant.
15 My (C1)eyes are continually toward Yahweh,
For He will (C2)bring my feet out of the net.
16 (C1)Turn to me and be gracious to me,
For I am (C2)alone and afflicted.
17 (F1)The (C1)troubles of my heart are enlarged;
Bring me (C2)out of my distresses.
18 (C1)See my affliction and my (F1)trouble,
And (C2)forgive all my sins.
19 See my enemies, for they (C1)are many,
And they (C2)hate me with violent hatred.
20 (C1)Keep my soul and deliver me;
Do not let me (C2)be ashamed, for I take refuge in You.
21 Let (C1)integrity and uprightness guard me,
For (C2)I hope in You.
22 (C1)Redeem Israel, O God,
Out of all his troubles.
