A psalm of David, a maskil
32
📚✭✭Blessed is the one whosetransgression is forgiven✭,
whose sin is covered✭.
2 📚Blessed is the man to
whom the LORD does
not impute✭ iniquity,
and in whose spirit there is
no guile✭.
3 📚When I kept silent✭,
my bones grew old through
my roaring all the day long.
4 📚For day and night your hand was
heavy on me.
My moisture was turned
into the drought
of summer. Selah
5 📚✭I acknowledged my sin to you,
and I did not hide my guilt.
I said, “I will confess my
transgressions to the LORD;
and you forgave the guilt
of my sin. Selah
6 📚✭For this reason everyone
who is godly will pray to you
in a time
when you may be found.
Surely the floods✭ of great waters
will not come near him.
7 📚✭You are my hiding place.
You will preserve me from trouble.
You will surround me with songs of
deliverance. Selah
8 📚✭I will instruct you and teach you
in the way you should go.
I will guide you with my eye.
9 📚Do not be like the horse or
like the mule,
which have
no understanding,
whose mouth must be controlled
with bit and bridle,
or they will not come near you.
10 📚✭Many sorrows shall be
to the wicked,
but mercy will surround the one
who trusts in the LORD.
11 📚✭Be glad in the LORD,
and rejoice, you righteous;
and shout for joy,
all you who are
upright in heart.
