Psalms 32

1 Of David a poem how blessed! [is one who] is forgiven of transgression [is one who] is covered of sin.

[A Psalm] of instruction by David. Blessed [are they] whose transgressions are forgiven, and who sins are covered.

2 How blessed! [is] a person [whom] not he reckons Yahweh to him iniquity and there not in spirit his [is] deceit.

Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin, and whose mouth there is no guile.

3 If I kept silent they became worn out bones my in cry of distress my all the day.

Because I kept silence, my bones waxed old, from my crying all the day.

4 For - by day and night it was heavy on me hand your it was changed juice my by [the] dry heat of summer (Selah)

For day and night your hand was heavy upon me: I became thoroughly miserable while a thorn was fastened in [me]. (Pause)

5 Sin my I made known to you and iniquity my not I covered I said I will confess on transgressions my to Yahweh and you you forgave [the] guilt of sin my (Selah)

I acknowledged my sin, and hid not mine iniquity: I said, I will confess mine iniquity to the Lord against myself; and you forgave the ungodliness of my heart. (Pause)

6 On this let him pray every faithful [person] - to you to a time of finding certainly to a flood of waters many to him not they will reach.

Therefore shall every holy one pray to you in a fit time: only in the deluge of many waters they shall not come near to him.

7 You - [are] a hiding place of me from distress you will preserve me shouts of deliverance; [surely] you will surround me (Selah)

You are my refuge from the affliction that encompasses me; my joy, to deliver me from them that have compassed me. (Pause)

8 I will instruct you - and I will teach you [the] way which you will go I will counsel [you] [will be] on you eye my.

I will instruct you and guide you in this way wherein you shall go: I will fix mine eyes upon you.

9 May not you be - like a horse like a mule [which] there not [is] understanding with bridle and halter trapping[s] its to restrain not to draw near to you.

Be you not as horse and mule, which have no understanding; [but you must] constrain their jaws with bit and curb, lest they should come near to you.

10 Many pains [belong] to wicked [person] and the [one who] trusts in Yahweh covenant loyalty it will surround him.

Many are the scourges of the sinner: but him that hopes in the Lord mercy shall compass about.

11 Rejoice in Yahweh and be glad O righteous [people] and shout for joy O all [people] upright of heart.

Be glad in the Lord, and exult, you righteous: and glory, all you that are upright in heart.
