CHAP. XXV.

1 Dauids confidence in prayer. 7 Hee prayeth for remission of sinnes, 16 and for helpe in affliction.

¹[A Psalme of Dauid.] Vnto thee, O Lord, doe I lift vp my soule.

²O my God, I trust in thee, let me not be ashamed: let not mine enemies triumph ouer me.²

³Yea let none that waite on thee, be ashamed: let them bee ashamed which transgresse without cause.³

⁴Shewe mee thy wayes, O Lord: teach me thy pathes.⁴

⁵Lead me in thy trueth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my saluation, on thee doe I waite all the day.

⁶Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies, and thy louing kindnesses: for they haue beene euer of old.⁶

⁷Remember not the sinnes of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercie remember thou me, for thy goodnesse sake, O Lord.

⁸Good and vpright is the Lord: therefore will hee teach sinners in the way.

⁹The meeke will he guide in iudgement: and the meeke will he teach his way.

¹⁰All the pathes of the Lord are mercy and truth: vnto such as keepe his couenant, and his testimonies.

¹¹For thy names sake, O Lord, pardon mine iniquitie: for it is great.

¹²What man is he that feareth the Lord? him shall he teach in the way that he shall chuse.

¹³His soule shall dwell at ease: and his seede shall inherite the earth.¹³

¹⁴The secret of the Lord is with them that feare him: and he will shew them his couenant.¹⁴

¹⁵Mine eyes are euer towards the Lord: for hee shall plucke my feete out of the net.¹⁵

¹⁶Turne thee vnto me, and haue mercy vpon me: for I am desolate and afflicted.

¹⁷The troubles of my heart are inlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses.

Dauids integritie.

¹⁸Looke vpon mine affliction, aud my paine, and forgiue all my sinnes.

¹⁹Consider mine enemies: for they are many, and they hate me with cruell hatred.¹⁹

²⁰O keepe my soule and deliuer me: let me not bee ashamed, for I put my trust in thee.

²¹Let integritie and vprightnesse preserue me: for I wait on thee.

²²Redeeme Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
