Psalms 32:3 Context
1[A Psalme of Dauid, Maschil.] Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiuen, whose sinne is couered. 2Blessed is the man vnto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquitie: and in whose spirit there is no guile. 3When I kept silence, my bones waxed old; through my roaring all the day long. 4For day and night thy hand was heauy vpon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah. 5I acknowledged my sin vnto thee, and mine iniquitie haue I not hid: I said, I will confesse my transgressions vnto the Lord; and thou forgauest the iniquitie of my sinne. Selah.
