Psalm 32

RHE

NLT

1 (31-1) <To David himself, understanding.> Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
1 Oh, what joy for those whose disobedience is forgiven, whose sin is put out of sight!
2 (31-2) Blessed is the man to whom the Lord hath not imputed sin, and in whose spirit there is no guile.
2 Yes, what joy for those whose record the LORD has cleared of guilt, whose lives are lived in complete honesty!
3 (31-3) Because I was silent my bones grew old; whilst I cried out all the day long.
3 When I refused to confess my sin, my body wasted away, and I groaned all day long.
4 (31-4) For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: I am turned in my anguish, whilst the thorn is fastened.
4 Day and night your hand of discipline was heavy on me. My strength evaporated like water in the summer heat. Interlude
5 (31-5) I have acknowledged my sin to thee, and my injustice I have not concealed. I said I will confess against my self my injustice to the Lord: and thou hast forgiven the wickedness of my sin.
5 Finally, I confessed all my sins to you and stopped trying to hide my guilt. I said to myself, “I will confess my rebellion to the LORD .” And you forgave me! All my guilt is gone. Interlude
6 (31-6) For this shall every one that is holy pray to thee in a seasonable time. And yet in a flood of many waters, they shall not come nigh unto him.
6 Therefore, let all the godly pray to you while there is still time, that they may not drown in the floodwaters of judgment.
7 (31-7) Thou art my refuge from the trouble which hath encompassed me: my joy, deliver me from them that surround me.
7 For you are my hiding place; you protect me from trouble. You surround me with songs of victory. Interlude
8 (31-8) I will give thee understanding, and I will instruct thee in this way, in which thou shalt go: I will fix my eyes upon thee.
8 The LORD says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you.
9 (31-9) Do not become like the horse and the mule, who have no understanding. With bit and bridle bind fast their jaws, who come not near unto thee.
9 Do not be like a senseless horse or mule that needs a bit and bridle to keep it under control.”
10 (31-10) Many are the scourges of the sinner, but mercy shall encompass him that hopeth in the Lord.
10 Many sorrows come to the wicked, but unfailing love surrounds those who trust the LORD .
11 (31-11) Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, ye just, and glory, all ye right of heart.
11 So rejoice in the LORD and be glad, all you who obey him! Shout for joy, all you whose hearts are pure!
