1: Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin
is covered. |
|
2: Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity,
and in whose spirit there is no guile. |
|
3:
When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all
the day long. |
|
4: For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is
turned into the drought of summer. Selah. |
|
5: I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not
hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou
forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah. |
|
6: For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a
time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters
they shall not come nigh unto him. |
|
7: Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble;
thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah. |
|
8: I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou
shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye. |
|
9: Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no
understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest
they come near unto thee. |
|
10: Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in
the LORD, mercy shall compass him about. |
|
11: Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for
joy, all ye that are upright in heart. |
