25:1  This is a song that David wrote. Lord, I offer myself to you.
25:2  I trust in you, my God. Please do not let me be ashamed. Do not let my enemies laugh at me, because they are stronger than me.
25:3  Surely nobody who trusts in you will become ashamed. But those who like to deceive others will become ashamed.
25:4  Lord, help me to understand your ways. Teach me your good paths.
25:5  Please be my guide and teach me your truth. I trust you every day, because you are the God who keeps me safe.
25:6  Lord, please be kind to me and show me your faithful love. From long ago you have always been like that.
25:7  Do not punish me for the sins that I did long ago. When I was young, I turned against you. Please be kind to me, because of your faithful love!
25:8  The Lord is good and he does what is right. Because of that, he teaches sinners the right way to live.
25:9  He is a guide for humble people, so that they know what is right. He teaches them to follow his way.
25:10  The Lord is kind to his people in everything that he does. He shows his faithful love to those who obey the rules of his covenant.
25:11  Lord, my sins are very many. Please forgive me, and show that your name is great.
25:12  If people respect the Lord, the Lord will show them the right way to live.
25:13  People like that will enjoy a good life. The land will belong to their descendants.
25:14  The Lord is a guide for those who serve him. He teaches them to obey his covenant.
25:15  I always look to the Lord for help. He will keep me safe from my enemies, so that their traps do not catch me.
25:16  Please turn towards me, Lord, and be kind to me. I feel very weak and lonely.
25:17  I worry a lot about my troubles. Please rescue me from them!
25:18  Look at all my pain! See how I am suffering! Forgive me for all my sins.
25:19  Look at all my enemies! There are very many of them! They hate me so much that they want to hurt me.
25:20  Keep my life safe and take care of me. I have come to you to keep me safe, so do not let me be ashamed.
25:21  I trust you to save me. Please take care of me, because I am honest and good.
25:22  God, save Israel's people from all their troubles!
