1
A Psalm of David. A Contemplation. Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered.
2
Blessed is the man to whom the Lord does not impute iniquity, And in 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 hand 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. I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the Lord," And You forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah
6
For this cause everyone who is godly shall pray to You In a time when You may be found; Surely in a flood of great waters They shall not come near him.
