Psalms Chapter 25
Project Gutenberg EPUB3 edition
Judica me, Domine.
David’s prayer to God in his distress, to be delivered, that he may come to worship him in his tabernacle.
25:1. Unto the end, a psalm for David. Judge me, O Lord, for I have walked in my innocence: and I have put my trust in the Lord, and shall not be weakened.
25:2. Prove me, O Lord, and try me; burn my reins and my heart.
25:3. For thy mercy is before my eyes; and I am well pleased with thy truth.
25:4. I have not sat with the council of vanity: neither will I go in with the doers of unjust things.
25:5. I have hated the assembly of the malignant; and with the wicked I will not sit.
25:6. I will wash my hands among the innocent; and will compass thy altar, O Lord:
25:7. That I may hear the voice of thy praise: and tell of all thy wondrous works.
25:8. I have loved, O Lord, the beauty of thy house; and the place where thy glory dwelleth.
25:9. Take not away my soul, O God, with the wicked: nor my life with bloody men:
25:10. In whose hands are iniquities: their right hand is filled with gifts.
25:11. But as for me, I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy on me.
25:12. My foot hath stood in the direct way: in the churches I will bless thee, O Lord.
