Psalms 32
To David himself, understanding. Blessed are they whose
iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
Blessed is the man to whom the Lord hath not imputed
sin, and in whose spirit there is no guile.
Because I was silent my bones grew old; whilst I cried
out all the day long.
For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: I am turned
in my anguish, whilst the thorn is fastened.
I have acknowledged my sin to thee, and my injustice
I have not concealed. I said I will confess against
myself my injustice to the Lord: and thou hast forgiven
the wickedness of my sin.
For this shall every one that is holy pray to thee in
a seasonable time. And yet in a flood of many waters,
they shall not come nigh unto him.
Thou art my refuge from the trouble which hath encompassed
me: my joy, deliver me from them that surround me.
I will give thee understanding, and I will instruct
thee in this way, in which thou shalt go: I will fix
my eyes upon thee.
Do not become like the horse and the mule, who have
no understanding. With bit and bridle bind fast their
jaws, who come not near unto thee.
Many are the scourges of the sinner, but mercy shall
encompass him that hopeth in the Lord.
Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, ye just, and glory,
all ye right of heart. |
