Chapter 32
- Blessed Are the Forgiven A Maskil of David. Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
- Blessed is the man against whom the Lord counts no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit.
- For when I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.
- For day and night your hand was heavy upon me; my strength was dried up as by the heat of summer.
- I acknowledged my sin to you, and I did not cover my iniquity; I said, I will confess my transgressions to the Adonai, and you forgave the iniquity of my sin.
- 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.
- You are a hiding place for me; you preserve me from trouble; you surround me with shouts of deliverance.
- I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you.
- 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.
- Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the Adonai.
- Be glad in the Adonai, and rejoice, O righteous, and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
