Psalm 32

1 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered.

2 Blessed is the man unto whom Jehovah imputeth not iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no guile.

3 When I kept silence, my bones wasted away Through my groaning all the day long.

4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: My moisture was changed as with the drought of summer. Selah

5 I acknowledged my sin unto thee, And mine iniquity did I not hide: I said, I will confess my transgressions unto Jehovah; And thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah

6 For this let every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: Surely when the great waters overflow they shall not reach unto him.

7 Thou art my hiding-place; thou wilt preserve me from trouble; Thou wilt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah

8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will counsel thee with mine eye upon thee.

9 Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding; Whose trappings must be bit and bridle to hold them in, Else they will not come near unto thee.

10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; But he that trusteth in Jehovah, lovingkindness shall compass him about.

11 Be glad in Jehovah, and rejoice, ye righteous; And shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.

Psalm 33

1 Rejoice in Jehovah, O ye righteous: Praise is comely for the upright.

2 Give thanks unto Jehovah with the harp: Sing praises unto him with the psaltery of ten strings.

3 Sing unto him a new song; Play skilfully with a loud noise.

4 For the word of Jehovah is right; And all his work is done in faithfulness.

5 He loveth righteousness and justice: The earth is full of the lovingkindness of Jehovah.

6 By the word of Jehovah were the heavens made, And all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.

7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as a heap: He layeth up the deeps in store-houses.

8 Let all the earth fear Jehovah: Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.

9 For he spake, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.

10 Jehovah bringeth the counsel of the nations to nought; He maketh the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.

11 The counsel of Jehovah standeth fast for ever, The thoughts of his heart to all generations.

12 Blessed is the nation whose God is Jehovah, The people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

13 Jehovah looketh from heaven; He beholdeth all the sons of men;

14 From the place of his habitation he looketh forth Upon all the inhabitants of the earth,

15 He that fashioneth the hearts of them all, That considereth all their works.

16 There is no king saved by the multitude of a host: A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.

17 A horse is a vain thing for safety; Neither doth he deliver any by his great power.

18 Behold, the eye of Jehovah is upon them that fear him, Upon them that hope in his lovingkindness;

19 To deliver their soul from death, And to keep them alive in famine.

20 Our soul hath waited for Jehovah: He is our help and our shield.

21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, Because we have trusted in his holy name.

22 Let thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, be upon us, According as we have hoped in thee.

Psalm 34

1 I will bless Jehovah at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth.

2 My soul shall make her boast in Jehovah: The meek shall hear thereof, and be glad.

3 Oh magnify Jehovah with me, And let us exalt his name together.

4 I sought Jehovah, and he answered me, And delivered me from all my fears.

5 They looked unto him, and were radiant; And their faces shall never be confounded.

6 This poor man cried, and Jehovah heard him, And saved him out of all his troubles.

7 The angel of Jehovah encampeth round about them that fear him, And delivereth them.8 Oh taste and see that Jehovah is good: Blessed is the man that taketh refuge in him.

9 Oh fear Jehovah, ye his saints; For there is no want to them that fear him.

10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger; But they that seek Jehovah shall not want any good thing.

11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of Jehovah.

12 What man is he that desireth life, And loveth many days, that he may see good?

13 Keep thy tongue from evil, And thy lips from speaking guile.

14 Depart from evil, and do good; Seek peace, and pursue it.

15 The eyes of Jehovah are toward the righteous, And his ears are open unto their cry.

16 The face of Jehovah is against them that do evil, To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.

17  The righteous cried, and Jehovah heard, And delivered them out of all their troubles.

18 Jehovah is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart, And saveth such as are of a contrite spirit.

19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous; But Jehovah delivereth him out of them all.

20 He keepeth all his bones: Not one of them is broken.

21 Evil shall slay the wicked; And they that hate the righteous shall be condemned.

22 Jehovah redeemeth the soul of his servants; And none of them that take refuge in him shall be condemned.
