PSAL. XXXII. A Psalm of David, Maschil.
OH blessed is the man to whom trespass is pardoned, And he to whom transgression is wholly covered. verse 2 O blessed is the man to whom the Lord imputes not sin; And he who such a spirit hath that guile is not therein.
verse 3 My bones whilst I did silence keep, with age did wear away, By reason of my roaring cry continuing all the day. verse 4 For heavily thy hand did lie upon me day and night; That into summers scorching drought my moisture turned quite. Selah.
verse 5 My sinful trespass unto thee I have acknowledged, And my perverse iniquity I have not covered: Against my self my sins said I, I'll to the Lord confess; And then of mine iniquity thou didst the sin release. Selah.
