Tehillim 25

1(Of Dovid) [Aleph] Unto Thee, Hashem, do I lift up my nefesh.

2[Bais] O Elohai, I trust in Thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine oyevim triumph over me.

3[Gimel] Yea, let none that wait [hoping in] Thee be ashamed; let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.

4[Dalet] Show me Thy ways, Hashem; teach me Thy paths.

5[Heh Vav] Lead me in Thy emes, and teach me; for Thou art the Elohei of my Salvation; on Thee do I wait kol hayom.

6[Zayin] Remember, Hashem, Thy rachamim and Thy lovingkindnesses; for they have ever been of old.

7[Chet] Remember not the chattot of my youth, nor my peysha'im; according to Thy chesed remember Thou me for the sake of Thy goodness, Hashem.

8[Tet] Tov and yashar is Hashem; therefore will He teach chatta'im in the Derech.

9[Yod] The meek will He guide in mishpat; and the aniyim will He teach His way.

10[Kaph] All the paths of Hashem are chesed and emes unto such as keep His Brit (covenant) and His Edot (covenant demands, urgings, reminders, testimonies).

11[Lamed] For the sake of Thy Shem, Hashem, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.

12[Mem] What man is he that feareth Hashem? Him shall He teach in the Derech that he shall choose.

13[Nun] His nefesh (soul) shall dwell in prosperity; and his zera shall inherit the earth.

14[Samech] The secret of Hashem is with them that fear Him; and He will show them His Brit (covenant).

15[Ayin] Mine eyes are ever toward Hashem; for He shall pluck my feet out of the reshet (net).

16[Peh] Turn Thee unto me, and be gracious unto me; for I am yachid (alone, lonely) and afflicted.

17[Tzade] The tzoros of my lev are multiplied; O bring Thou me forth out of my distresses.

18[Resh] Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and take away all my chattot.

19[Resh] Look upon mine enemies; for they are increased; and they hate me with sinas chamas.

20[Shin] Be shomer over my nefesh, and deliver me; let me not be ashamed; for I take refuge in Thee.

21[Tav] Let tohm (integrity, guilelessness) and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on Thee.

22Redeem Yisroel, O Elohim, out of all his tzoros.
