25:1  A Psalm of David. To You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
25:2  O my God, in You I [have unwavering] trust [and I rely on You with steadfast confidence], Do not let me be ashamed or my hope in You be disappointed; Do not let my enemies triumph over me.
25:3  Indeed, none of those who [expectantly] wait for You will be ashamed; Those who turn away from what is right and deal treacherously without cause will be ashamed (humiliated, embarrassed).
25:4  Let me know Your ways, O Lord; Teach me Your paths.
25:5  Guide me in Your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my salvation; For You [and only You] I wait [expectantly] all the day long.
25:6  Remember, O Lord, Your [tender] compassion and Your lovingkindnesses, For they have been from of old.
25:7  Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions; According to Your lovingkindness remember me, For Your goodness’ sake, O Lord.
25:8  Good and upright is the Lord; Therefore He instructs sinners in the way.
25:9  He leads the humble in justice, And He teaches the humble His way.
25:10  All the paths of the Lord are lovingkindness and goodness and truth and faithfulness To those who keep His covenant and His testimonies.
25:11  For Your name’s sake, O Lord, Pardon my wickedness and my guilt, for they are great.
25:12  Who is the man who fears the Lord [with awe-inspired reverence and worships Him with submissive wonder]? He will teach him [through His word] in the way he should choose.
25:13  His soul will dwell in prosperity and goodness, And his descendants will inherit the land.
25:14  The secret [of the wise counsel] of the Lord is for those who fear Him, And He will let them know His covenant and reveal to them [through His word] its [deep, inner] meaning.
25:15  My eyes are continually toward the Lord, For He will bring my feet out of the net.
25:16  Turn to me [Lord] and be gracious to me, For I am alone and afflicted.
25:17  The troubles of my heart are multiplied; Bring me out of my distresses.
25:18  Look upon my affliction and my trouble, And forgive all my sins.
25:19  Look upon my enemies, for they are many; They hate me with cruel and violent hatred.
25:20  Guard my soul and rescue me; Do not let me be ashamed or disappointed, For I have taken refuge in You.
25:21  Let integrity and uprightness protect me, For I wait [expectantly] for You.
25:22  O God, redeem Israel, Out of all his troubles.
