Psalms, 32

1. [Of David Poem] How blessed are those whose offence is forgiven, whose sin blotted out.

1. <[A Psalm] of David, Maschil.> Blessed [is he whose] transgression [is] forgiven, [whose] sin [is] covered.

2. How blessed are those to whom Yahweh imputes no guilt, whose spirit harbours no deceit.

2. Blessed [is] the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit [there is] no guile.

3. I said not a word, but my bones wasted away from groaning all the day;

3. When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.

4. day and night your hand lay heavy upon me; my heart grew parched as stubble in summer drought.Pause

4. For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah.

5. I made my sin known to you, did not conceal my guilt. I said, 'I shall confess my offence to Yahweh.' And you, for your part, took away my guilt, forgave my sin.Pause

5. I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah.

6. That is why each of your faithful ones prays to you in time of distress. Even if great floods overflow, they will never reach your faithful.

6. For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto him.

7. You are a refuge for me, you guard me in trouble, with songs of deliverance you surround me.Pause

7. Thou [art] my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.

8. I shall instruct you and teach you the way to go; I shall not take my eyes off you.

8. I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.

9. Be not like a horse or a mule; that does not understand bridle or bit; if you advance to master them, there is no means of bringing them near.

9. Be ye not as the horse, [or] as the mule, [which] have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.

10. Countless troubles are in store for the wicked, but one who trusts in Yahweh is enfolded in his faithful love.

10. Many sorrows [shall be] to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about.

11. Rejoice in Yahweh, exult all you upright, shout for joy, you honest of heart.

11. Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all [ye that are] upright in heart.
