Blessedness of Forgiveness and of Trust in God.
1 How blessed is he whose wrongdoing is forgiven,
Whose sin is covered!
2 How blessed is a person whose guilt the Lord does not take into account,
And in whose spirit there is no deceit!
3 When I kept silent about my sin, my 32:3 Or bones, substancebody wasted away
Through my 32:3 Lit roaringgroaning all day long.
4 For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me;
My 32:4 Lit life juices were turned into the drought of summervitality failed as with the dry heat of summer. Selah
5 I acknowledged my sin to You,
And I did not hide my guilt;
I said, "I will confess my wrongdoings to the Lord";
And You forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah
6 Therefore, let everyone who is godly pray to You 32:6 Lit in a time of finding outin a time when You may be found;
Certainly in a flood of great waters, they will not reach him.
