¹ [A Psalm] of David. Maschil. Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered.² Blessed is [the] man to whom Yahweh does not impute iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no guile.³ When I kept silent, my bones wasted away Through my groaning all the day long.⁴ For day and night your hand was heavy on me: My moisture was changed in the drought of summer. Selah.⁵ I acknowledged my sin to you, And my iniquity I did not hide: I said, I will confess my transgressions to Yahweh; And you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah.⁶ For this let every one that is godly pray to you in a time when you may be found: Surely when the great waters overflow they shall not reach to him.

⁷ You are my hiding-place; you will preserve me from trouble; You will compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.⁸ I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go: I will counsel you with my eye on you.⁹ Don't be as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding; Whose trappings must be bit and bridle to hold them in, [Else] they will not come near to you.¹⁰ Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; But he that trusts in Yahweh, loving-kindness shall compass him about.¹¹ Be glad in Yahweh, and rejoice, you righteous; And shout for joy, all you that are upright in heart.
