Psalm 25 :: Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

My God, I trust in you.

Do not let me be disgraced;

do not let my enemies gloat over me.

No one who waits for you

will be disgraced;

those who act treacherously without cause

will be disgraced.

Make your ways known to me, LORD;

teach me your paths.

Guide me in your truth and teach me,

for you are the God of my salvation;

I wait for you all day long.

Remember, LORD, your compassion

and your faithful love,

for they have existed from antiquity.[fn]

Do not remember the sins of my youth

or my acts of rebellion;

in keeping with your faithful love, remember me

because of your goodness, LORD.

The LORD is good and upright;

therefore he shows sinners the way.

He leads the humble in what is right

and teaches them his way.

All the LORD’s ways show faithful love and truth

to those who keep his covenant and decrees.

LORD, for the sake of your name,

forgive my iniquity, for it is immense.

Who is this person who fears the LORD?

He will show him the way he should choose.

He will live a good life,

and his descendants will inherit the land.[fn]

The secret counsel of the LORD

is for those who fear him,

and he reveals his covenant to them.

My eyes are always on the LORD,

for he will pull my feet out of the net.

Turn to me and be gracious to me,

for I am alone and afflicted.

The distresses of my heart increase;[fn]

bring me out of my sufferings.

Consider my affliction and trouble,

and forgive all my sins.

Consider my enemies; they are numerous,

and they hate me violently.

Guard me and rescue me;

do not let me be disgraced,

for I take refuge in you.

May integrity and what is right

watch over me,

for I wait for you.

God, redeem Israel, from all its distresses.
