MLV(i)
1 Those whose transgression is forgiven are fortunate, whose sin is covered.
2 The man to whom Jehovah does not reckon sin and in whose spirit there is no deceit is fortunate.
3 Because I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning all the day long. 4 Because day and night your hand was heavy upon me. My moisture was changed as with the drought of summer. Selah.
5 I acknowledged my sin to you and I did not hide my iniquity. I said, I will confess my transgressions to Jehovah and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah.
6 On this, let everyone who is devout pray to you in a time when you may be found. Surely when the great waters overflow they will not reach to him. 7 You are my hiding-place. You will preserve me from trouble. You will encompass me around with songs of deliverance. Selah.
8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you will go. I will counsel you with my eye upon you.
9 Do not become as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding, whose trappings must be a bit and bridle to hold them in, else they will not come near to you.
10 Many sorrows will be to the wicked, but he who trusts in Jehovah, loving kindness will encompass him around.
11 Be glad in Jehovah and rejoice, you*, righteous ones. And shout for joy, all you* who are upright in heart.
