PSALM 32
Of David. Instruction.
1Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered! 2Blessed is the man unto whom Jehovah reckoneth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile! 3When I kept silence, my bones waxed old, through my groaning all the day long. 4For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me; my moisture was turned into the drought of summer. Selah. 5I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity I covered not; I said, I will confess my transgressions unto Jehovah, and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah. 6For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee at a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they will not reach him.
7Thou art a hiding-place for me; thou preservest me from trouble; thou dost encompass me with songs of deliverance. Selah. 8I will instruct thee and teach thee the way in which thou shalt go; I will counsel thee with mine eye upon thee. 9Be ye not as a horse, as a mule, which have no understanding: whose trappings must be bit and bridle, for restraint, or they will not come unto thee. 10Many sorrows hath the wicked; but he that confideth in Jehovah, loving-kindness shall encompass him. 11Rejoice in Jehovah, and be glad, ye righteous; and shout for joy, all ye upright in heart.

Tehillim (Psa) 32
32
1By David. A maskil:
How blessed are those whose offense is forgiven,
those whose sin is covered!
2How blessed those to whom Adonai imputes no guilt,
in whose spirit is no deceit!
3When I kept silent, my bones wasted away
because of my groaning all day long;
4day and night your hand was heavy on me;
the sap in me dried up as in a summer drought. (Selah)
5When I acknowledged my sin to you,
when I stopped concealing my guilt,
and said, “I will confess my offenses to Adonai”;
then you, you forgave the guilt of my sin. (Selah)
6This is what everyone faithful should pray
at a time when you can be found.
Then, when the floodwaters are raging,
they will not reach to him.
7You are a hiding-place for me,
you will keep me from distress;
you will surround me
with songs of deliverance. (Selah)
8“I will instruct and teach you
in this way that you are to go;
I will give you counsel;
my eyes will be watching you.”
9Don’t be like a horse or mule
that has no understanding,
that has to be curbed with bit and bridle,
or else it won’t come near you.
10Many are the torments of the wicked,
but grace surrounds those who trust in Adonai.
11Be glad in Adonai; rejoice, you righteous!
Shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
