Good and upright(A) is the Lord;
    therefore he instructs(B) sinners in his ways.
He guides(C) the humble in what is right
    and teaches them(D) his way.
10 All the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful(E)
    toward those who keep the demands of his covenant.(F)
11 For the sake of your name,(G) Lord,
    forgive(H) my iniquity,(I) though it is great.

12 Who, then, are those who fear the Lord?(J)
    He will instruct them in the ways(K) they should choose.[a]
13 They will spend their days in prosperity,(L)
    and their descendants will inherit the land.(M)
14 The Lord confides(N) in those who fear him;
    he makes his covenant known(O) to them.

  1. Psalm 25:12 Or ways he chooses

Good and upright is the Lord: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.

The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.

10 All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

11 For thy name's sake, O Lord, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.

12 What man is he that feareth the Lord? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.

13 His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.

14 The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.
