2Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin, And in whose mouth there is no guile.
3Because I kept silence, my bones waxed old, From my crying all the day.
4For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: I became thoroughly miserable while a thorn was fastened in me. Pause.
5I acknowledged my sin, And hid not mine iniquity: I said, I will confess mine iniquity to the Lord against myself; And thou forgavest the ungodliness of my heart. Pause.
