Blessedness of Forgiveness and of Trust in God.
A Psalm of David. A APossibly Contemplative, or Didactic, or Skillful PsalmMaskil.
APs 85:2; 103:3; Rom 4:7, 8How blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven,
Whose sin is covered!
How blessed is the man to whom the Loʀᴅ A2 Cor 5:19does not impute iniquity,
And in whose spirit there is BJohn 1:47no deceit!
 
When APs 39:2, 3I kept silent about my sin, BPs 31:10my 1Or bones, substancebody wasted away
Through my 2Lit roaringCPs 38:8groaning all day long.
For day and night A1 Sam 5:6; Job 23:2; 33:7; Ps 38:2; 39:10Your hand was heavy upon me;
My 1Lit life juices were turned into the drought of summerBPs 22:15vitality was drained away as with the fever heat of summer. 2Selah may mean: Pause, Crescendo or Musical interludeSelah.
I ALev 26:40acknowledged my sin to You,
And my iniquity I BJob 31:33did not hide;
I said, “CPs 38:18; Prov 28:13; 1 John 1:9I will confess my transgressions to the Loʀᴅ”;
And You DPs 103:12forgave the 1Or iniquityguilt of my sin. Selah.
Therefore, let everyone who is godly pray to You 1Lit in a time of finding outAPs 69:13; Is 55:6in a time when You may be found;
Surely BPs 46:1-3; 69:1; 124:5; 144:7; Is 43:2in a flood of great waters they will not reach him.
You are APs 9:9; 31:20; 91:1; 119:114my hiding place; You BPs 121:7preserve me from trouble;
You surround me with 1Or shoutsCEx 15:1; Judg 5:1; Ps 40:3songs of deliverance. Selah.
 
I will APs 25:8instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go;
I will counsel you BPs 33:18with My eye upon you.
Do not be AProv 26:3as the horse or as the mule which have no understanding,
Whose trappings include bit and bridle to hold them in check,
Otherwise they will not come near to you.
10 Many are the APs 16:4; Prov 13:21; Rom 2:9sorrows of the wicked,
But BPs 5:11, 12; Prov 16:20he who trusts in the Loʀᴅ, lovingkindness shall surround him.
11 Be APs 64:10; 68:3; 97:12glad in the Loʀᴅ and rejoice, you righteous ones;
And shout for joy, all you who are BPs 7:10; 64:10upright in heart.
