Psalm 32

English translation got from website: https://www.chabad.org/library/bible_cdo

  1. Of David, a maskil Praiseworthy is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is concealed.
  2. Praiseworthy is the man to whom the Lord ascribes no iniquity and in whose spirit there is no guile.
  3. When I was silent, my bones decayed with my moaning all day long.
  4. For [both] day and night Your hand is heavy upon me; my freshness was transformed as in the droughts of summer, forever.
  5. I would inform You of my sin, and I did not conceal my iniquity; I said, « I will confess my transgressions to the Lord, » and You forgave the iniquity of my sin forever.
  6. For this let every pious man pray to You at the time that You are found, only about a flood of vast waters [that] should not reach him.
  7. You are a shelter for me, from an adversary You guard me; with songs of deliverance You encompass me forever,
  8. « I will enlighten you and instruct you which way [to go]; I will wink My eye to you. »
  9. Be not like a horse, like a mule that does not discern; whose mouth must be held with bit and bridle, so that when he is being groomed, he does not come near you.
  10. Many are the pains of the wicked, but as for him who trusts in the Lord- kindness will encompass him.
  11. Rejoice with the Lord and exult, You righteous, and cause all those of upright hearts to sing praises.
