A Psalm of David, Maschil. Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the manunto whom the LORDimputethnotiniquity, and in whose spirit there is noguile. WhenI kept silence, my boneswaxed oldthrough my roaringallthe daylong. Fordayand nightthy handwas heavyuponme: my moistureis turnedinto the droughtof summer. Selah. I acknowledgedmy sinunto thee, and mine iniquityhave I nothid. I said, I will confessmy transgressionsunto the LORD; and thouforgavestthe iniquityof my sin. Selah. Forthisshall everyone that is godlyprayuntothee in a timewhen thou mayest be found: surelyin the floodsof greatwatersthey shall notcome nighuntohim. Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserveme from trouble; thou shalt compass me aboutwith songsof deliverance. Selah. I will instructthee and teachthee in the waywhichthou shalt go: I will guidethee with mine eye. Beye notas the horse, or as the mule, which have nounderstanding: whose mouthmust be held inwith bitand bridle, lestthey come nearunto thee. Manysorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trustethin the LORD, mercyshall compass him about. Be gladin the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are uprightin heart.
