Psalms
Psalm 25:10–14
10All the LORD’s ways are loving and faithful
to those who keep His covenant and His decrees.
11For the sake of Your name, O LORD,
forgive my iniquity, for it is great.
12Who is the man who fears the LORD?
He will instruct him in the path chosen for him.
13His soul will dwell in prosperity,
and his descendants will inherit the land.
14The LORD confides in those who fear Him,
and reveals His covenant to them.
