Psalm 25 | Liturgical Calendar

1

Unto you, O Lord, will I lift up my soul; my God, I have put my trust in you; *

O let me not be ashamed, neither let my enemies triumph over me.

2

For all those who hope in you shall not be ashamed, *

but those who deal untruly shall be put to confusion.

3

Show me your ways, O Lord, *

and teach me your paths.

4

Lead me forth in your truth, and teach me, *

for you are the God of my salvation; in you has been my hope all the day long.

5

Call to remembrance, O Lord, your tender mercies, *

and your loving-kindnesses, which have been from of old.

6

O remember not the sins and offenses of my youth, *

but according to your mercy think on me, O Lord, in your goodness.

7

Gracious and righteous is the Lord; *

therefore will he teach sinners in the way.

8

Those who are meek shall he guide in judgment, *

and those who are gentle shall he teach his way.

9

All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth *

to those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.

10

For your Name’s sake, O Lord, *

forgive my sin, for it is great.

11

Who is the one who fears the Lord? *

He shall teach him in the way that he shall choose.

12

He shall dwell at ease, *

and his seed shall inherit the land.

13

The Lord reveals his secret counsel to those who fear him, *

and he will show them his covenant.

14

My eyes are ever looking to the Lord, *

for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.

15

Turn to me, and have mercy on me, *

for I am desolate and in misery.

16

The sorrows of my heart are enlarged; *

O bring me out of my troubles.

17

Look upon my adversity and misery *

and forgive me all my sin.

18

Consider my enemies, how many they are, *

and how they bear a tyrannous hate against me.

19

O keep my soul and deliver me; *

let me not be ashamed, for I have put my trust in you.

20

Let integrity and righteous dealing preserve me, *

for my hope has been in you.

21

Deliver Israel, O God, *

out of all his troubles.
