25.3 :They shall be ashamed that deal treacherously without cause.
 * Show me Thy ways, O ;
 * Teach me Thy paths.
 * Guide me in Thy truth, and teach me;
 * For Thou art the God of my salvation;
 * For Thee do I wait all the day.
 * Remember, O, Thy compassions and Thy mercies;
 * For they have been from of old.
 * Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions;
 * According to Thy mercy remember Thou me,
 * For thy goodness' sake, O.
 * Good and upright is the ;
 * Therefore doth He instruct sinners in the way.
 * He guideth the humble in justice;
 * And He teacheth the humble His way.
 * All the paths of the are mercy and truth
 * Unto such as keep His covenant and His testimonies.
 * For Thy name's sake, O ,
 * Pardon mine iniquity, for it is great,
 * What man is he that feareth the ?
 * Him will He instruct in the way that he should choose.
 * His soul shall abide in prosperity,
 * And his seed shall inherit the land.
 * The counsel of the is with them that fear Him;
 * And His covenant, to make them know it.
 * Mine eyes are ever toward the ;
 * For He will bring forth my feet out of the net.
 * Turn Thee unto me, and be gracious unto me;
 * For I am solitary and afflicted.
 * The troubles of my heart are enlarged;
 * O bring Thou me out of my distresses.
 * See mine affliction and my travail;
 * And forgive all my sins.
 * Consider how many are mine enemies,
 * And the cruel hatred wherewith they hate me.
 * O keep my soul, and deliver me;
 * Let me not be ashamed, for I have taken refuge in Thee.
 * Let integrity and uprightness preserve me;
 * Because I wait for Thee.


 * Redeem Israel, O God,
 * Out of all his troubles.

[A Psalm] of David.


 * Judge me, O, for I have walked in mine integrity,
 * And I have trusted in the without wavering.
 * Examine me, O, and try me,
 * Test my reins and my heart.
 * For Thy mercy is before mine eyes;
 * And I have walked in Thy truth.
 * I have not sat with men of falsehood;
 * Neither will I go in with dissemblers.
 * I hate the gathering of evil-doers,
 * And will not sit with the wicked
 * I will wash my hands in innocency;
 * So will I compass Thine altar, O ,
 * That I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard,
 * And tell of all Thy wondrous works.


 * , I love the habitation of Thy house,
 * And the place where Thy glory dwelleth.
