Psalm 32:1–4

1 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven,

whose sin is covered.

2 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord imputes no iniquity,

and in whose spirit there is no deceit.

3 When I declared not my sin, my body wasted away

through my groaning all day long.

4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me;

my strength was dried upo as by the heat of summer. [Selah]
