Psalm 25

A psalm of David.

1 To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul.

2 I trust in you, my God! Do not let me be disgraced, or let my enemies rejoice in my defeat.

3 No one who trusts in you will ever be disgraced, but disgrace comes to those who try to deceive others.

4 Show me the path where I should walk, O LORD; point out the right road for me to follow.

5 Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me.
All day long I put my hope in you.

6 Remember, O LORD, your unfailing love and compassion, which you have shown from long ages past.

7 Forgive the rebellious sins of my youth; look instead through the eyes of your unfailing love,
for you are merciful, O LORD.

8 The LORD is good and does what is right; he shows the proper path to those who go astray.

9 He leads the humble in what is right, teaching them his way.

10 The LORD leads with unfailing love and faithfulness all those who keep his covenant and obey his decrees.
