32:1  The one whose wrongdoing is forgiven, whose sin is covered over, is truly happy!
32:2  The one the Lord doesn’t consider guilty— in whose spirit there is no dishonesty— that one is truly happy!
32:3  When I kept quiet, my bones wore out; I was groaning all day long— every day, every night!—
32:4  because your hand was heavy upon me. My energy was sapped as if in a summer drought. Selah
32:5  So I admitted my sin to you; I didn’t conceal my guilt. “I’ll confess my sins to the Lord, ” is what I said. Then you removed the guilt of my sin. Selah
32:6  That’s why all the faithful should pray to you during troubled times, so that a great flood of water won’t reach them.
32:7  You are my secret hideout! You protect me from trouble. You surround me with songs of rescue! Selah
32:8  I will instruct you and teach you about the direction you should go. I’ll advise you and keep my eye on you.
32:9  Don’t be like some senseless horse or mule, whose movement must be controlled with a bit and a bridle. Don’t be anything like that!
32:10  The pain of the wicked is severe, but faithful love surrounds the one who trusts the Lord.
32:11  You who are righteous, rejoice in the Lord and be glad! All you whose hearts are right, sing out in joy!
