Psalms - Chapter 32 | New International Version

  • 1. {Of David. A maskil.} Blessed is he whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.
  • 2. Blessed is the man whose sin the LORD does not count against him and in whose spirit is no deceit.
  • 3. 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 sapped as in the heat of summer. Selah
  • 5. Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the LORD"-- and you forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah
  • 6. Therefore let everyone who is godly pray to you while you may be found; surely when the mighty waters rise, they will not reach him.
  • 7. You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah
  • 8. I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you.
  • 9. Do not be like the horse or the mule, which have no understanding but must be controlled by bit and bridle or they will not come to you.
  • 10. Many are the woes of the wicked, but the LORD's unfailing love surrounds the man who trusts in him.
  • 11. Rejoice in the LORD and be glad, you righteous; sing, all you who are upright in heart!
