The Twenty-Fifth Psalm

Ad te, Domine, levavi.


UNTO thee, O LORD, will I lift up my soul; my God, I have put my trust in thee: * O let me not be confounded, neither let mine enemies triumph over me.
 
For all they that hope in thee shall not be ashamed; * but such as transgress without a cause shall be put to confusion.
 
Show me thy ways, O LORD, * and teach me thy paths.
 
Lead me forth in thy truth, and learn me: * for thou art the God of my salvation; in thee hath been my hope all the day long.
 
Call to remembrance, O LORD, thy tender mercies, * and thy loving-kindnesses, which have been ever of old.
 
O remember not the sins and offences of my youth; * but according to thy mercy think thou upon me, O LORD, for thy goodness.
 
Gracious and righteous is the LORD; * therefore, will he teach sinners in the way.
 
Them that are meek shall he guide in judgment; * and such as are gentle, them shall he learn his way.
 
All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth, * unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
 
For thy Name's sake, O LORD, * be merciful unto my sin; for it is great.
 
What man is he that feareth the LORD? * him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.
 
His soul shall dwell at ease, * and his seed shall inherit the land.
 
The secret of the LORD is among them that fear him; * and he will show them his covenant.
 
Mine eyes are ever looking unto the LORD; * for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.
 
Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; * for I am desolate, and in misery.
 
The sorrows of my heart are enlarged: * O bring thou me out of my troubles.
 
Look upon my adversity and misery, * and forgive me all my sin.
 
Consider mine enemies, how many they are; * and they bear a tyrannous hate against me.
 
O keep my soul, and deliver me: * let me not be confounded, for I have put my trust in thee.
 
Let perfectness and righteous dealing wait upon me; * for my hope hath been in thee.
 
Deliver Israel, O God, * out of all his troubles.
