Psalm 25:8-14

Teach Me Your Paths

8 b Good and upright is the Lord;
therefore he c instructs sinners in the way.
 9 He leads the humble in what is right,
and teaches the humble his way.
 10 All the paths of the Lord are d steadfast love and faithfulness,
for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.

11 For your e name's sake, O Lord,
pardon my guilt, for it is f great.
 12 Who is the man who fears the Lord?
Him c will he instruct in the way that he should choose.
 13 His soul shall g abide in well-being,
and his h offspring i shall inherit the land.
 14 j The friendship 1 of the Lord is for those who fear him,
and he makes known to them his covenant.
