32:1  1 David punished with grievous sickness for his sins, counteth them blessed to whom God doth not impute their transgressions. 5 And after that he had confessed his sins, and obtained pardon, 6 he exhorteth the wicked men to live godly, 11 and the good to rejoice. A Psalm of David to give instruction. Blessed is he whose wickedness is forgiven, and whose sin is covered.
32:2  Blessed is the man, unto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.
32:3  When I held my tongue, my bones consumed, or when I roared all the day,
32:4  (For thine hand is heavy upon me day and night: and my moisture is turned into the drought of Summer. Selah.)
32:5  Then I acknowledged my sin unto thee, neither hid I mine iniquity: for I thought, I will confess against myself my wickedness unto the Lord, and thou forgavest the punishment of my sin. Selah.
32:6  Therefore shall everyone that is godly, make his prayer unto thee in a time, when thou mayest be found: surely in the flood of great waters they shall not come near him.
32:7  Thou art my secret place: thou preservest me from trouble: thou compassest me about with joyful deliverance. Selah.
32:8  I will instruct thee, and teach thee in the way that thou shalt go, and I will guide thee with mine eye.
32:9  Be ye not like an horse, or like a mule which understand not: whose mouths thou dost bind with bit and bridle, lest they come near thee.
32:10  Many sorrows shall come to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the Lord, mercy shall compass him.
32:11  Be glad ye righteous, and rejoice in the Lord, and be joyful all ye, that are upright in heart.
