New Living Translation
Psalms • Chapter 32
1
Oh, what joy for those<br>whose disobedience is forgiven,<br>whose sin is put out of sight!<br>
2
Yes, what joy for those<br>whose record the LORD has cleared of guilt,<br>whose lives are lived in complete honesty!<br>
3
When I refused to confess my sin,<br>my body wasted away,<br>and I groaned all day long.<br>
4
Day and night your hand of discipline was heavy on me.<br>My strength evaporated like water in the summer heat. <i>Interlude</i><br>
5
Finally, I confessed all my sins to you<br>and stopped trying to hide my guilt.<br>I said to myself, “I will confess my rebellion to the LORD.”<br>And you forgave me! All my guilt is gone. <i>Interlude</i><br>
6
Therefore, let all the godly pray to you while there is still time,<br>that they may not drown in the floodwaters of judgment.<br>
7
For you are my hiding place;<br>you protect me from trouble.<br>You surround me with songs of victory. <i>Interlude</i><br>
8
The LORD says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life.<br>I will advise you and watch over you.<br>
9
Do not be like a senseless horse or mule<br>that needs a bit and bridle to keep it under control.”<br>
10
Many sorrows come to the wicked,<br>but unfailing love surrounds those who trust the LORD.<br>
11
So rejoice in the LORD and be glad, all you who obey him!<br>Shout for joy, all you whose hearts are pure!<br>
