1 Of David. A Maskil. Blessed is he whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. | TOSK |
2 Blessed is the man whose iniquity the LORD does not count against him, in whose spirit there is no deceit. | TOSK |
3 When I kept silent, my bones became brittle from my groaning all day long. | TOSK |
4 For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me; my strength was drained as in the summer heat. Selah | TOSK |
5 Then I acknowledged my sin to You and did not hide my iniquity. I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD,” and You forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah | IP | TOSK |
6 Therefore let all the godly pray to You while You may be found. Surely when great waters rise, they will not come near. | TOSK |
7 You are my hiding place. You protect me from trouble; You surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah | TOSK |
8 I will instruct you and teach you the way you should go; I will give you counsel and watch over you. | TOSK |
9 Do not be like the horse or mule, which have no understanding; they must be controlled with bit and bridle to make them come to you. | TOSK |
10 Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but loving devotion surrounds him who trusts in the LORD. | TOSK |
11 Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, O righteous ones; shout for joy, all you upright in heart. | TOSK |
