Salmos 32

The Joy of Forgiveness

1 *Ro 4.7,8.Our Lord, you bless everyone

whose sins you forgive

and wipe away.

2 You bless them by saying,

"You told me your sins,

without trying to hide them,

and now I forgive you."

3 Before I confessed my sins,

my bones felt limp,

and I groaned all day long.

4 Night and day your hand

weighed heavily on me,

and my strength was gone

as in the summer heat.

5 So I confessed my sins

and told them all to you.

I said, "I’ll tell the Lord

each one of my sins."

Then you forgave me

and took away my guilt.

6 We worship you, Lord,

and we should always pray

whenever we find out

that we have sinned.*32.6 whenever … sinned: Hebrew "at a time of finding only."

Then we won’t be swept away

by a raging flood.
