PSALM 32

How blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven,
whose sin is covered!
How blessed is the man
to whom the LORD does not impute iniquity,
and in whose spirit there is no deceit!

When I kept silent about my sin,
my body wasted away
through my groaning all day long.
For day and night
your hand was heavy upon me;
my vitality was drained away
as with the fever heat of summer. Selah.

I acknowledged my sin to you,
and my iniquity I did not hide;
I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the LORD";
and you forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah.

Therefore, let everyone who is godly pray to you
in a time when you may be found;
surely in a flood of great waters
they will not reach him.
You are my hiding place;
you preserve me from trouble;
you surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah.

I will instruct you and teach you
in the way which you should go;
I will counsel you with my eye upon you.
Do not be as the horse or as the mule
which have no understanding,
whose trappings include bit and bridle
to hold them in check,
otherwise they will not come near to you.

Many are the sorrows of the wicked,
but he who trusts in the LORD,
lovingkindness shall surround him.
Be glad in the LORD and rejoice,
you righteous ones;
and shout for joy,
all you who are upright in heart.
