2Blessed is the man, to whom the Lord areckoned not sin; neither guile is in his spirit.
3For I was still, my bones waxed eld; while I cried all day.
4For by day and night thine hand was made grievous on me; I am turned in my wretchedness, while the thorn is set in.
5I made my sin known to thee; and I hid not my unrightfulness. I said, I shall acknowledge against me mine unrightfulness to the Lord; and thou hast forgiven the wickedness of my sin.
