# Psalm 32 A Maskil of David. 
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. 
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. Blessed is the man against whom the LORD counts no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit. 
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. For when I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long. 
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. For day and night your hand was heavy upon me; my strength was dried up as by the heat of summer. Selah 
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. I acknowledged my sin to you, and I did not cover my iniquity; I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD,” and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah 
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. Therefore let everyone who is godly offer prayer to you at a time when you may be found; surely in the rush of great waters, they shall not reach him. 
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. You are a hiding place for me; you preserve me from trouble; you surround me with shouts of deliverance. Selah 
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
8. I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you. 
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
9. Be not like a horse or a mule, without understanding, which must be curbed with bit and bridle, or it will not stay near you. 
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
10. Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the LORD. 
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
11. Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, O righteous, and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
