A Responsive Reading
of Psalm 25: 1-9
To You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
O my God, in You I trust;
do not let me be put to shame;
do not let my enemies rejoice over me.
Do not let those who wait for You be put to shame;
let them be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous.
Make me to know Your ways, O Lord;
teach me Your paths.
Let me in Your truth, and teach me,
for You are the God of my salvation;
for You I wait all day long.
Be mindful of Your mercy, O Lord,
and of Your steadfast love,
for they have been from of old.
Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions;
according to Your steadfast love remember me,
for Your goodness’ sake, O Lord!
Good and upright is the Lord;
therefore He instructs sinners in the way.
He leads the humble in what is right,
and teaches the humble His way.
