Psalms 25:2,3 (JPS)
O my God, in Thee have I trusted, let me not
be ashamed;
let not mine enemies triumph over me.
Yea, none that wait for Thee shall be
ashamed;
they shall be ashamed that deal treacherously
without cause.
Psalms 25:2 (NAS)
O my God, in Thee I trust, Do not let me be
ashamed;
Do not let my enemies exult over me.
Indeed, none of those who wait for Thee will
be ashamed;
Those who deal treacherously without cause
will be ashamed.
The Lord God, Jehovah, is
your God. He is your creator and your savior. You have confidence and trust in
Him. He makes you safe and secure. In Him you are bold.
He will never disappoint you or allow you to be ashamed. He will not delay in fulfilling your desires. He will not allow your enemies, those who are hostile to you, to rejoice in triumph over you nor will they be exulted over you.
Wait expectantly for Him. Look for His answer hopefully. Linger in His presence, for He shall surely deal faithfully with you.
And those who deal treacherously, faithlessly, and deceitfully with you shall be ashamed. All of their threats are empty and vain. They are void and without effect. The Lord shall pour their words down the drain, for they are idle and worthless. And you shall rejoice and be exulted!
