Salmi 32:3

3 Mentr’io mi son taciuto le mie ossa si son consumate pel ruggire ch’io facevo tutto il giorno.

Salmi 32:3 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 32:3

When I kept silence
Was unthoughtful of sin, unconcerned about it, and made no acknowledgment and confession of it to God, being quite senseless and stupid; the Targum adds, "from the words of the law"; which seems to point at sin as the cause of what follows;

my bones waxed old; through my roaring all the day long;
not under a sense of sin, but under some severe affliction, and through impatience in it; not considering that sin lay at the bottom, and was the occasion of it; and such was the violence of the disorder, and his uneasiness under it, that his strength was dried up by it, and his bones stuck out as they do in aged persons, whose flesh is wasted away from them; see ( Psalms 102:3 Psalms 102:5 ) .

Salmi 32:3 In-Context

1 Di Davide. Cantico. Beato colui la cui trasgressione e rimessa e il cui peccato è coperto!

2 Beato l’uomo a cui l’Eterno non imputa l’iniquità e nel cui spirito non è frode alcuna!

3 Mentr’io mi son taciuto le mie ossa si son consumate pel ruggire ch’io facevo tutto il giorno.

4 Poiché giorno e notte la tua mano s’aggravava su me, il mio succo vitale s’era mutato come per arsura d’estate. Sela.

5 Io t’ho dichiarato il mio peccato, non ho coperta la mia iniquità. Io ho detto: Confesserò le mie trasgressioni all’Eterno; e tu hai perdonato l’iniquità del mio peccato. Sela.
