Psalms 25

PSALM 25

1The song of David . Lord, to thee I have raised my soul;

2my God, I trust in thee, be I not ashamed. Neither mine enemies scorn me;

3for all men that suffer thee shall not be shamed. All men doing wicked things superfluously; be they shamed.

4Lord, show thou thy ways to me; and teach thou me thy paths.

5Dress thou me in thy truth, and teach thou me, for thou art God, my saviour; and I suffered thee all day.

6Lord, have thou mind of thy merciful doings; and of thy mercies that be from the world.

7Have thou not mind on the tres-passes of my youth; and on mine unknowings. Thou, Lord, have mind on me by thy mercy; for thy goodness.

8The Lord is sweet and rightful; for this cause he shall give a law to men trespassing in the way.

9He shall dress meek men in doom; he shall teach mild men his ways.

10All the ways of the Lord be mercy and truth; to men seeking his testament, and his witnessings.

11Lord, for thy name, thou shalt do mercy to my sin; for it is much.

12Who is a man, that dreadeth the Lord? he ordaineth to him a law in the way which he should choose.

13His soul shall dwell in goods; and his seed shall inherit the land.

14The Lord is a firmness to men dreading him; and his testament is, that it be showed to them.

15Mine eyes be ever[more] toward the Lord; for he shall pull away [or pull up] my feet from the snare.

16Behold thou to me, and have thou mercy on me; for I am one alone and poor.

17The tribulations of mine heart be multiplied; deliver thou me of my needs.

18See thou my meekness and my travail; and forgive thou all my tres-passes.

19Behold thou mine enemies, for they be multiplied; and they hate me by wicked hatred.

20Keep thou my soul, and deliver me; be I not ashamed, for I hoped in thee.

21Innocent men and rightful cleaved to me; for I suffered thee.

22God, deliver thou Israel; from all his tribulations.
