Psalms 31:3 CPDV

¹  The understanding of David himself. Blessed are they whose iniquities have been forgiven and whose sins have been covered.

²  Blessed is the man to whom the Lord has not imputed sin,and in whose spirit there is no deceit.

³  Because I was silent, my bones grew old,while still I cried out all day long.

⁴  For, day and night, your hand was heavy upon me.I have been converted in my anguish, while still the thorn is piercing.

⁵  I have acknowledged my offense to you,and I have not concealed my injustice.I said, 'I will confess against myself, my injustice to the Lord,'and you forgave the impiety of my sin.
