PSALM 25, first version S.M.

1 To thee I lift my soul:
2 O LORD, I trust in thee:
My God, let me not be asham’d,
nor foes triumph o’er me.

3 Let none that wait on thee
be put to shame at all;
But those that without cause transgress,
let shame upon them fall.

4 Show me thy ways, O LORD;
thy paths, O teach thou me:
5 And do thou lead me in thy truth,
therein my teacher be:

For thou art God that dost
to me salvation send,
And I upon thee all the day
expecting do attend.

6 Thy tender mercies, LORD,
I pray thee to remember,
And loving-kindnesses; for they
have been of old for ever.

7 My sins and faults of youth
do thou, O LORD, forget:
After thy mercy think on me,
and for thy goodness great.

8 GOD good and upright is:
the way he’ll sinners show.
9 The meek in judgment he will guide,
and make his path to know.

10 The whole paths of the LORD
are truth and mercy sure,
To those that do his cov’nant keep,
and testimonies pure.

11 Now, for thine own name’s sake,
O LORD, I thee entreat
To pardon mine iniquity;
for it is very great.

12 What man is he that fears
the LORD, and doth him serve?
Him shall he teach the way that he
shall choose, and still observe.

13 His soul shall dwell at ease;
and his posterity
Shall flourish still, and of the earth
inheritors shall be.

14 With those that fear him is
the secret of the LORD;
The knowledge of his covènant
he will to them afford.

15 Mine eyes upon the LORD
continually are set;
For he it is that shall bring forth
my feet out of the net.

16 Turn unto me thy face,
and to me mercy show;
Because that I am desolate,
and am brought very low.

17 My heart’s griefs are increased:
me from distress relieve.
18 See mine affliction and my pain,
and all my sins forgive.

19 Consider thou my foes,
because they many are;
And it a cruel hatred is
which they against me bear.

20 O do thou keep my soul,
do thou deliver me:
And let me never be ashamed,
because I trust in thee.

21 Let uprightness and truth
keep me, who thee attend.
22 Redemption, Lord, to Israel
from all his troubles send.
