Of David.
א [ʼAʹleph]
25 To you, O Jehovah, I raise my very soul.+
ב [Behth]
2 O my God, in you have I put my trust;+
O may I not be ashamed.
May my enemies not exult over me.+
ג [Giʹmel]
3 Also, none of those hoping in you will be ashamed.+
They will be ashamed who are dealing treacherously without success.+
ד [Daʹleth]
4 Make me know your own ways, O Jehovah;+
Teach me your own paths.+
ה [Heʼ]
5 Make me walk in your truth and teach me,+
For you are my God of salvation.+
ו [Waw]
In you I have hoped all day long.+
ז [Zaʹyin]
6 Remember your mercies,+ O Jehovah, and your loving-kindnesses,+
For they are from time indefinite.+
ח [Chehth]
7 The sins of my youth and my revolts O do not remember.+
According to your loving-kindness do you yourself remember me,+
For the sake of your goodness, O Jehovah.+
ט [Tehth]
8 Good and upright is Jehovah.+
That is why he instructs sinners in the way.+
י [Yohdh]
9 He will cause the meek ones to walk in [his] judicial decision,+
And he will teach the meek ones his way.+
כ [Kaph]
10 All the paths of Jehovah are loving-kindness and trueness
For those observing his covenant+ and his reminders.+
ל [Laʹmedh]
11 For your name’s sake, O Jehovah,+
You must even forgive my error, for it is considerable.+
מ [Mem]
12 Who, now, is the man fearful of Jehovah?+
He will instruct him in the way [that] he will choose.+
נ [Nun]
13 His own soul will lodge in goodness itself,+
And his own offspring will take possession of the earth.+
ס [Saʹmekh]
14 The intimacy with Jehovah belongs to those fearful of him,+
Also his covenant, to cause them to know it.+
ע [ʽAʹyin]
15 My eyes are constantly toward Jehovah,+
For he it is that brings my feet out of the net.+
פ [Peʼ]
16 Turn your face to me, and show me favor;+
For I am solitary and afflicted.+
צ [Tsa·dhehʹ]
17 Distresses of my heart have multiplied;+
From the stresses upon me O bring me out.+
ר [Rehsh]
18 See my affliction and my trouble,+
And pardon all my sins.+
19 See how many my enemies have become,+
And with a violent hatred they have hated me.+
ש [Shin]
20 Do guard my soul and deliver me.+
May I not be ashamed, for I have taken refuge in you.+
ת [Taw]
21 Let integrity and uprightness themselves safeguard me,+
For I have hoped in you.+
22 O God, redeem Israel out of all his distresses.+
