Psalms 32:4-9

⁴For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me; my moisture was turned into the drought of summer. Selah.

⁵I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity I covered not; I said, I will confess my transgressions unto Jehovah, and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah.

⁶For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee at a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they will not reach him.

⁷Thou art a hiding-place for me; thou preservest me from trouble; thou dost encompass me with songs of deliverance. Selah.

⁸I will instruct thee and teach thee the way in which thou shalt go; I will counsel thee with mine eye upon thee.

⁹Be ye not as a horse, as a mule, which have no understanding: whose trappings must be bit and bridle, for restraint, or they will not come unto thee.
