Psalms 32

KING JAMES BIBLE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.	1 [Of David Poem] How blessed are those whose offence is forgiven, whose sin blotted out.
2 Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.	2 How blessed are those to whom Yahweh imputes no guilt, whose spirit harbours no deceit.
3 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.	3 I said not a word, but my bones wasted away from groaning al the day;
4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah.	4 day and night your hand lay heavy upon me; my heart grew parched as stubble in summerdrought.Pause
5 I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah.	5 I made my sin known to you, did not conceal my guilt. I said, 'I shal confess my offence to Yahweh.'And you, for your part, took away my guilt, forgave my sin.Pause
6 For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto him.	6 That is why each of your faithful ones prays to you in time of distress. Even if great floods overflow,they will never reach your faithful.
7 Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.	7 You are a refuge for me, you guard me in trouble, with songs of deliverance you surround me.Pause
8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.	8 I shal instruct you and teach you the way to go; I shall not take my eyes off you.
9 Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.	9 Be not like a horse or a mule; that does not understand bridle or bit; if you advance to master them,there is no means of bringing them near.
10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about.	10 Countless troubles are in store for the wicked, but one who trusts in Yahweh is enfolded in his faithfullove.
11 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.	11 Rejoice in Yahweh, exult al you upright, shout for joy, you honest of heart.
