1Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven,
2Blessed is the man unto whom Jehovah imputeth not iniquity,
3When I kept silence, my bones wasted away
4For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me:
5I acknowledged my sin unto thee,
6For this let every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found:
7Thou art my hiding-place; thou wilt preserve me from trouble;
8I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go:
9Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding;
10Many sorrows shall be to the wicked;
11Be glad in Jehovah, and rejoice, ye righteous;
