| 1 | (Psalm 32 [A Psalm] of David. Maschil.)Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered. |
| 2 | Blessed is the man unto whom Jehovah imputeth not iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no guile. |
| 3 | When I kept silence, my bones wasted away Through my groaning all the day long. |
| 4 | For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: My moisture was changed [as] with the drought of summer. Selah |
| 5 | I acknowledged my sin unto thee, And mine iniquity did I not hide: I said, I will confess my transgressions unto Jehovah; And thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah |
| 6 | For this let every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: Surely when the great waters overflow they shall not reach unto him. |
| 7 | Thou art my hiding-place; thou wilt preserve me from trouble; Thou wilt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah |
| 8 | I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will counsel thee with mine eye upon thee. |
| 9 | Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding; Whose trappings must be bit and bridle to hold them in, [Else] they will not come near unto thee. |
| 10 | Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; But he that trusteth in Jehovah, lovingkindness shall compass him about. |
| 11 | Be glad in Jehovah, and rejoice, ye righteous; And shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart. |
