14 The Lord manifests himself to those who fear him,[a]
    and he makes his covenant known to them.
15 My eyes are ever upon the Lord,
    for he alone can free my feet from the snare.
16 [b]Turn to me and have mercy on me,
    for I am alone and afflicted.

Footnotes

  1. Psalm 25:14 The Lord manifests himself to those who fear him: some translations have “The Lord manifests his secret to those who fear him,” which is to be understood as divine intimacy and friendship (see Ps 73:28; Ex 33:11; Job 29:4; Prov 3:32; Jn 15:5) united with the understanding of divine things (see Jer 16:21; 31:34; Hos 6:6).
  2. Psalm 25:16 Renewed prayer for relief from distress and foes.
