Psalm 25
Of David.
1[a] To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul;
2 in you I trust, O my God.
Do not let me be put to shame,
nor let my enemies triumph over me.
3 No one whose hope is in you
will ever be put to shame,
but they will be put to shame
who are treacherous without excuse.
4 Show me your ways, O LORD,
teach me your paths;
5 guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God my Savior,
and my hope is in you all day long.
6 Remember, O LORD, your great mercy and love,
for they are from of old.
7 Remember not the sins of my youth
and my rebellious ways;
according to your love remember me,
for you are good, O LORD.
8 Good and upright is the LORD;
therefore he instructs sinners in his ways.
9 He guides the humble in what is right
and teaches them his way.
10 All the ways of the LORD are loving and faithful
for those who keep the demands of his covenant.
11 For the sake of your name, O LORD,
forgive my iniquity, though it is great.
12 Who, then, is the man that fears the LORD ?
He will instruct him in the way chosen for him.
13 He will spend his days in prosperity,
and his descendants will inherit the land.
14 The LORD confides in those who fear him;
he makes his covenant known to them.
15 My eyes are ever on the LORD,
for only he will release my feet from the snare.
16 Turn to me and be gracious to me,
for I am lonely and afflicted.
17 The troubles of my heart have multiplied;
free me from my anguish.
18 Look upon my affliction and my distress
and take away all my sins.
19 See how my enemies have increased
and how fiercely they hate me!
20 Guard my life and rescue me;
let me not be put to shame,
for I take refuge in you.
21 May integrity and uprightness protect me,
because my hope is in you.
22 Redeem Israel, O God,
from all their troubles!
Footnotes:
Psalm 25:1 This psalm is an acrostic poem, the verses of which begin with the successive letters of the Hebrew alphabet.
Psalm 25 (New International Version)
N.B:
The nation of Israel shall be redeemed by the grace of God and not by the Peace Resolution for Lebanon Unanimously Approved at U.N.. And all the enemies of Israel who don't want Israel to exist don't deserve to exist. And those enemies who say that Israel should be wiped off the face of the earth shall be wiped off the face of the earth. Because, God will redeem Israel from all her troubles.
Whosoever does not want you to live does not deserve to live.
We should live and let others live in love, peace and unity for the common good of humanity.

Sorry to say this but I think the whole of ME is possessed by some dumb devil.
Keshi.
Sweet Keshi,
My mother said her father always said that if you give in to the devil, the devil will make you do evil. But if you reject the devil, you will be free from evil. So, it is a question of choice. They have chosen to obey the devil and disobey God.
Peace begets peace.
And violence begets violence.
God bless.
