Psalms 32:3

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
