1 Blessed is he whose disobedience is forgiven,

2 Blessed is the man to whom the LORD doesn’t impute iniquity,

3 When I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.

4 For day and night your hand was heavy on me.

5 I acknowledged my sin to you.

6 For this, let everyone who is godly pray to you in a time when you may be found.

7 You are my hiding place.

8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go.

9 Don’t be like the horse, or like the mule, which have no understanding,

10 Many sorrows come to the wicked,

11 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, you righteous!
