1.2 KiB
Psalm 32The Joy of Forgiveness
-
How joyful is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered!
-
How joyful is a person whom the Lord does not charge with iniquity and in whose spirit is no deceit!
-
When I kept silent, my bones became brittle from my groaning all day long.
-
For day and night your hand was heavy on me; my strength was drained as in the summer's heat.Selah
-
Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not conceal my iniquity. I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the Lord," and you forgave the guilt of my sin.Selah
-
Therefore let everyone who is faithful pray to you immediately. When great floodwaters come, they will not reach him.
-
You are my hiding place; you protect me from trouble.
You surround me with joyful shouts of deliverance.Selah
-
I will instruct you and show you the way to go; with my eye on you, I will give counsel.
-
Do not be like a horse or mule, without understanding, that must be controlled with bit and bridle or else it will not come near you.
-
Many pains come to the wicked, but the one who trusts in the Lord will have faithful love surrounding him.
-
Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, you righteous ones; shout for joy, all you upright in heart.
