Psalms 32

ledavid maskil ashre nesuy-pesha kesuy khata'ah

Of David. A maskil. Happy is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered over.

ashre-adam lo yakhshov Adonai lo avon ve'en berukho remiyyah

Happy the person whom GOD does not hold guilty, and in whose spirit there is no deceit.

ki-hekherashti balu atsamay besha'agati kol-hayyom

As long as I said nothing, my limbs wasted away from my anguished roaring all day long.

ki yomam valaylah tikhbad alay yadekha nehpakh leshaddi bekharvone qayits selah

For night and day Your hand lay heavy on me; my vigor waned as in the summer drought. Selah.

khattati odi'akha va'avoni lo-khissiti amarti odeh ale fesha'ay la-Adonai ve'attah nasata avon khattati selah

Then I acknowledged my sin to You; I did not cover up my guilt; I resolved, “I will confess my transgressions to GOD,” and You forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah.

al-zot yitpallel kol-khasid elekha le'et metso raq leshetef mayim rabbim elayw lo yaggi'u

Therefore let all the faithful pray to You upon discovering [their sin], that the rushing mighty waters not overtake them.

attah seter li mitsar titsereni ronne fallet tesoveveni selah

You are my shelter; You preserve me from distress; You surround me with the joyous shouts of deliverance. Selah.

askilekha ve'orekha bederekh-zu telekh i'atsah alekha eni

Let me enlighten you and show you which way to go; let me offer counsel; my eye is on you.

al-tihyu kesus kefered en havin bemeteg-varesen edyo livlom bal qerov elekha

Be not like a senseless horse or mule whose movement must be curbed by bit and bridle; far be it from you!

rabbim makhovim larasha vehabboteakh ba-Adonai khesed yesovevennu

Many are the torments of the wicked, but those who trust in GOD shall be surrounded with favor.

simkhu va-Adonai vegilu tsaddiqim veharninu kol-yishre-lev

Rejoice in GOD and exult, O you righteous; shout for joy, all the upright!
