32:1  Of David. A maskil. Blessed is the one whose fault is removed, whose sin is forgiven.
32:2  Blessed is the man to whom the Lord imputes no guilt, in whose spirit is no deceit.
32:3  Because I kept silent, my bones wasted away; I groaned all day long.
32:4  For day and night your hand was heavy upon me; my strength withered as in dry summer heat. Selah
32:5  Then I declared my sin to you; my guilt I did not hide. I said, “I confess my transgression to the Lord,” and you took away the guilt of my sin. Selah
32:6  Therefore every loyal person should pray to you in time of distress. Though flood waters threaten, they will never reach him.
32:7  You are my shelter; you guard me from distress; with joyful shouts of deliverance you surround me. Selah
32:8  I will instruct you and show you the way you should walk, give you counsel with my eye upon you.
32:9  Do not be like a horse or mule, without understanding; with bit and bridle their temper is curbed, else they will not come to you.
32:10  Many are the sorrows of the wicked one, but mercy surrounds the one who trusts in the Lord.
32:11  Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, you righteous; exult, all you upright of heart.
