32:1 [A Maskil of David.] Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. 32:2 Blessed is the man against whom the LORD counts no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit. 32:3 For when I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long. 32:4 For day and night your hand was heavy upon me; my strength was dried up as by the heat of summer. Selah 32:5 I acknowledged my sin to you, and I did not cover my iniquity; I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the LORD," and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah 32:6 Therefore let everyone who is godly offer prayer to you at a time when you may be found; surely in the rush of great waters, they shall not reach him. 32:7 You are a hiding place for me; you preserve me from trouble; you surround me with shouts of deliverance. Selah 32:8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you. 32:9 Be not like a horse or a mule, without understanding, which must be curbed with bit and bridle, or it will not stay near you. 32:10 Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the LORD. 32:11 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, O righteous, and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
