The Joy of Forgiveness

A Psalm of David. A Contemplation.

1 Blessed is he whose atransgression is forgiven,
Whose sin is covered. 
2 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord adoes not impute iniquity,
And bin whose spirit there is no deceit. 
3 When I kept silent, my bones grew old
Through my groaning all the day long.
4 For day and night Your ahand was heavy upon me;
My vitality was turned into the drought of summer. Selah 
5 I acknowledged my sin to You,
And my iniquity I have not hidden.
aI said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,”
And You forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah 
6 aFor this cause everyone who is godly shall bpray to You
In a time when You may be found;
Surely in a flood of great waters
They shall not come near him. 
7 aYou are my hiding place;
You shall preserve me from trouble;
You shall surround me with bsongs of deliverance. Selah 
8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will guide you with My eye.
9 Do not be like the ahorse or like the mule,
Which have no understanding,
Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle,
Else they will not come near you. 
10 aMany sorrows shall be to the wicked;
But bhe who trusts in the Lord, mercy shall surround him. 
11 aBe glad in the Lord and rejoice, you righteous;
And shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
