Psalm 32

¹ Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered.

² Blessed is the man to whom יהוה imputes no crookedness, And in whose spirit there is no deceit.

³ When I kept silent, my bones became old Through my groaning all the day.

⁴ For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me; My sap was turned into the droughts of summer. Selah.

⁵ I acknowledged my sin to You, And my crookedness I did not hide. I have said, “I confess my transgressions to יהוה,” And You forgave the crookedness of my sin. Selah.

⁶ Therefore, let every lovingly-committed one pray to You While You might be found; Even in a flood of great waters They would not reach him.

⁷ You are my hiding place; You preserve me from distress; You surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah.

⁸ “Let Me instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; Let Me counsel, My eye be on you.

⁹ Do not be like the horse, like the mule, With no understanding, with bit and bridle, Else they do not come near you.”

¹⁰ Many are the sorrows of the wrong; But as for the one trusting in יהוה, Loving-commitment surrounds him.

¹¹ Be glad in יהוה and exult, you righteous; And shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
