Psalm 25. Ad te, Domine, levavi.

1. To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul; my God, I put my trust in you; *
   let me not be humiliated, nor let my enemies triumph over me.
2. Let none who look to you be put to shame; *
   let the treacherous be disappointed in their schemes.
3. Show me your ways, O Lord, *
   and teach me your paths.
4. Lead me in your truth and teach me, *
   for you are the God of my salvation; in you have I trusted all the day long.
5. Remember, O Lord, your compassion and love, *
   for they are from everlasting.
6. Remember not the sins of my youth and my transgressions; *
   remember me according to your love and for the sake of your goodness, O Lord.
7. Gracious and upright is the Lord; *
   therefore he teaches sinners in his way.
8. He guides the humble in doing right *
   and teaches his way to the lowly.
9. All the paths of the Lord are love and faithfulness *
   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 are they who fear the Lord? *
    he will teach them the way that they should choose.
12. They shall dwell in prosperity, *
    and their offspring shall inherit the land.
13. The Lord is a friend to those who fear him *
    and 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 pity on me, *
    for I am left alone and in misery.
16. The sorrows of my heart have increased; *
    bring me out of my troubles.
17. Look upon my adversity and misery *
    and forgive me all my sin.
18. Look upon my enemies, for they are many, *
    and they bear a violent hatred against me.
19. Protect my life and deliver me; *
    let me not be put to shame, for I have trusted in you.
20. Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, *
    for my hope has been in you.
21. Deliver Israel, O God, *
    out of all his troubles.
