A Psalm of David. A 1Contemplation.
1 Blessed is he whose atransgression is forgiven,
Whose sin is covered.
2 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord bdoes not 2impute iniquity,
And cin whose spirit there is no deceit.
3 When I kept silent, my bones grew old
Through my groaning all the day long.
4 For day and night Your dhand was heavy upon me;
My vitality was turned into the drought of summer.
Selah
5 I acknowledged my sin to You,
And my iniquity I have not hidden.
eI said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,”
And You forgave the iniquity of my sin.
Selah
6 fFor this cause everyone who is godly shall gpray to You
In a time when You may be found;
Surely in a flood of great waters
They shall not come near him.
7 hYou are my hiding place;
You shall preserve me from trouble;
You shall surround me with isongs of deliverance.
Selah
8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will guide you with My eye.
9 Do not be like the jhorse or like the mule,
Which have no understanding,
Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle,
Else they will not come near you.
10 kMany sorrows shall be to the wicked;
But lhe who trusts in the Lord, mercy shall surround him.
11 mBe glad in the Lord and rejoice, you righteous;
And shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
About The New King James VersionThe New King James Version is a total update of the 1611 King James Version, also known as the "Authorized Version." Every attempt has been made to maintain the beauty of the original version while updating the English grammar to contemporary style and usage. The result is much better "readability." It is noteworthy that the NKJV is one of the few modern translations still based on the "Western" or "Byzantine" manuscript tradition. This makes the New King James Version an invaluable aid to comparative English Bible study. |
