25:1  To you, O Lord, I pray.
25:2  Don’t fail me, Lord, for I am trusting you. Don’t let my enemies succeed. Don’t give them victory over me.
25:3  None of those who have faith in God will ever be disgraced for trusting him. But all who harm the innocent shall be defeated.
25:4  Show me the path where I should go, O Lord; point out the right road for me to walk.
25:5  Lead me; teach me; for you are the God who gives me salvation. I have no hope except in you.
25:6  Overlook my youthful sins, O Lord! Look at me instead through eyes of mercy and forgiveness, through eyes of everlasting love and kindness.
25:7  Overlook my youthful sins, O Lord! Look at me instead through eyes of mercy and forgiveness, through eyes of everlasting love and kindness.
25:8  The Lord is good and glad to teach the proper path to all who go astray;
25:9  he will teach the ways that are right and best to those who humbly turn to him.
25:10  And when we obey him, every path he guides us on is fragrant with his loving-kindness and his truth.
25:11  But Lord, my sins! How many they are. Oh, pardon them for the honor of your name.
25:12  Where is the man who fears the Lord? God will teach him how to choose the best.
25:13  He shall live within God’s circle of blessing, and his children shall inherit the earth.
25:14  Friendship with God is reserved for those who reverence him. With them alone he shares the secrets of his promises.
25:15  My eyes are ever looking to the Lord for help, for he alone can rescue me.
25:16  Come, Lord, and show me your mercy, for I am helpless, overwhelmed, in deep distress;
25:17  my problems go from bad to worse. Oh, save me from them all!
25:18  See my sorrows; feel my pain; forgive my sins.
25:19  See how many enemies I have and how viciously they hate me!
25:20  Save me from them! Deliver my life from their power! Oh, let it never be said that I trusted you in vain!
25:21  Assign me Godliness and Integrity as my bodyguards, for I expect you to protect me
25:22  and to ransom Israel from all her troubles.
