Psalms - Chapter 32 | English Standard Version

  • 1. A Maskil of David. Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
  • 2. Blessed is the man against whom the LORD counts no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit.
  • 3. For when I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.
  • 4. For day and night your hand was heavy upon me; my strength was dried up as by the heat of summer. Selah.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 7. You are a hiding place for me; you preserve me from trouble; you surround me with shouts of deliverance. Selah.
  • 8. I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you.
  • 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.
  • 10. Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the LORD.
  • 11. Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, O righteous, and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
