¹ [A Psalm] of David. Maschil. Happy is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is pardoned.² Happy is the man unto whom the LORD counteth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.³ When I kept silence, my bones wore away through my groaning all the day long.⁴ For day and night Thy hand was heavy upon me; ⁵ I acknowledged my sin unto Thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid; {N}and Thou, Thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah⁶ For this let every one that is godly pray unto Thee in a time when Thou mayest be found;

⁷ Thou art my hiding-place; Thou wilt preserve me from the adversary; ⁸ 'I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go; I will give counsel, Mine eye being upon thee.'⁹ Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding; ¹⁰ Many are the sorrows of the wicked; but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy compasseth him about.¹¹ Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous; and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.
