< Psalms 25 >

1 [By David.] To you, LORD, do I lift up my soul.
To Dauid.
2 My God, I have trusted in you. Do not let me be shamed. Do not let my enemies triumph over me.
Lord, to thee Y haue reisid my soule; my God, Y truste in thee, be Y not aschamed.
3 Yes, no one who waits for you shall be shamed. They shall be shamed who deal treacherously without cause.
Nethir myn enemyes scorne me; for alle men that suffren thee schulen not be schent.
4 Show me your ways, LORD. Teach me your paths.
Alle men doynge wickyd thingis superfluli; be schent. Lord, schewe thou thi weies to me; and teche thou me thi pathis.
5 Guide me in your truth, and teach me, For you are the God of my salvation, I wait for you all day long.
Dresse thou me in thi treuthe, and teche thou me, for thou art God my sauyour; and Y suffride thee al dai.
6 LORD, remember your tender mercies and your loving kindness, for they are from old times.
Lord, haue thou mynde of thi merciful doyngis; and of thi mercies that ben fro the world.
7 Do not remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions. Remember me according to your loving kindness, for your goodness' sake, LORD.
Haue thou not mynde on the trespassis of my yongthe; and on myn vnkunnyngis. Thou, Lord, haue mynde on me bi thi merci; for thi goodnesse.
8 Good and upright is the LORD, therefore he will instruct sinners in the way.
The Lord is swete and riytful; for this he schal yyue a lawe to men trespassynge in the weie.
9 He will guide the humble in justice. He will teach the humble his way.
He schal dresse deboner men in doom; he schal teche mylde men hise weies.
10 All the paths of the LORD are loving kindness and truth to those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.
Alle the weies of the Lord ben mercy and treuthe; to men sekynge his testament, and hise witnessyngis.
11 For your name's sake, LORD, pardon my iniquity, for it is great.
Lord, for thi name thou schalt do merci to my synne; for it is myche.
12 What man is he who fears the LORD? He shall instruct him in the way that he shall choose.
Who is a man, that dredith the Lord? he ordeyneth to hym a lawe in the weie which he chees.
13 His soul shall dwell in prosperity, and his descendants shall inherit the land.
His soule schal dwelle in goodis; and his seed schal enerite the lond.
14 The friendship of the LORD is with those who fear him. He will show them his covenant.
The Lord is a sadnesse to men dredynge hym; and his testament is, that it be schewid to hem.
15 My eyes are ever on the LORD, for he will pluck my feet out of the net.
Myn iyen ben euere to the Lord; for he schal breide awey my feet fro the snare.
16 Turn to me, and have mercy on me, for I am desolate and afflicted.
Biholde thou on me, and haue thou mercy on me; for Y am
17 Relieve me from the distresses of my heart, and bring me out of my distresses.
oon aloone and pore The tribulaciouns of myn herte ben multiplied; delyuere thou me of my nedis.
18 Consider my affliction and my travail. Forgive all my sins.
Se thou my mekenesse and my trauel; and foryyue thou alle my trespassis.
19 Consider my enemies, for they are many. They hate me with cruel hatred.
Bihold thou myn enemyes, for thei ben multiplied; and thei haten me bi wickid hatrede.
20 Oh keep my soul, and deliver me. Let me not be disappointed, for I take refuge in you.
Kepe thou my soule, and delyuere thou me; be Y not aschamed, for Y hopide in thee.
21 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you, LORD.
Innocent men and riytful cleuyden to me; for Y suffride thee.
22 Redeem Israel, God, from all of his troubles.
God, delyuere thou Israel; fro alle hise tribulaciouns.
