Psalms 32:10

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!

What Does Psalms 32:10 Mean?

Psalm 32:10-11

The ancient Israelites expressed joy by singing, dancing, playing musical instruments, and shouting at victory celebrations, festivals, sacrifices, and coronations. Gladness and joy are blessings from God. Gladness is the experience of pleasure, joy, or delight, resulting from happiness and joy. Joy is a quality, not simply an emotion, grounded upon God Himself and derived from Him. It should characterize our lives as Christians. Joy springs from the prospect of possessing our desires and can be temporary or long-lasting.
