Psalms 25 — Context

O my God, I have put my faith in you, let me not be shamed; let not my haters be glorying over me.

Let no servant of yours be put to shame; may those be shamed who are false without cause.

Make your steps clear to me, O Lord; give me knowledge of your ways.

Be my guide and teacher in the true way; for you are the God of my salvation; I am waiting for your word all the day.

O Lord, keep in mind your pity and your mercies; for they have been from the earliest times.

Do not keep in mind my sins when I was young, or my wrongdoing: let your memory of me be full of mercy, O Lord, because of your righteousness.

Good and upright is the Lord: so he will be the teacher of sinners in the way.
