1 Blessed is the one whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.2 Blessed is the one whose sin the LORD does not count against them and in whose spirit is no deceit.3 When I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.4 For day and night your hand was heavy on me; my strength was sapped as in the heat of summer. [^1]5 Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the LORD." And you forgave the guilt of my sin.6 Therefore let all the faithful pray to you while you may be found; surely the rising of the mighty waters will not reach them.7 You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance.8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.9 Do not be like the horse or the mule, which have no understanding but must be controlled by bit and bridle or they will not come to you.10 Many are the woes of the wicked, but the LORD's unfailing love surrounds the one who trusts in him.11 Rejoice in the LORD and be glad, you righteous; sing, all you who are upright in heart!
1 Psalmus David. [Exsultate, justi, in Domino ;rectos decet collaudatio.2 Confitemini Domino in cithara ;in psalterio decem chordarum psallite illi.3 Cantate ei canticum novum ;bene psallite ei in vociferatione.4 Quia rectum est verbum Domini,et omnia opera ejus in fide.5 Diligit misericordiam et judicium ;misericordia Domini plena est terra.6 Verbo Domini cli firmati sunt,et spiritu oris ejus omnis virtus eorum.7 Congregans sicut in utre aquas maris ;ponens in thesauris abyssos.8 Timeat Dominum omnis terra ;ab eo autem commoveantur omnes inhabitantes orbem.9 Quoniam ipse dixit, et facta sunt ;ipse mandavit et creata sunt.10 Dominus dissipat consilia gentium ;reprobat autem cogitationes populorum,et reprobat consilia principum.11 Consilium autem Domini in ternum manet ;cogitationes cordis ejus in generatione et generationem.12 Beata gens cujus est Dominus Deus ejus ;populus quem elegit in hreditatem sibi.13 De clo respexit Dominus ;vidit omnes filios hominum.14 De prparato habitaculo suorespexit super omnes qui habitant terram :15 qui finxit sigillatim corda eorum ;qui intelligit omnia opera eorum.16 Non salvatur rex per multam virtutem,et gigas non salvabitur in multitudine virtutis su.17 Fallax equus ad salutem ;in abundantia autem virtutis su non salvabitur.18 Ecce oculi Domini super metuentes eum,et in eis qui sperant super misericordia ejus :19 ut eruat a morte animas eorum,et alat eos in fame.20 Anima nostra sustinet Dominum,quoniam adjutor et protector noster est.21 Quia in eo ltabitur cor nostrum,et in nomine sancto ejus speravimus.22 Fiat misericordia tua, Domine, super nos,quemadmodum speravimus in te.]
