Psalmes 32

P S A L. XXXI.

1 Dauid shewing his confidence in God, craueth his helpe. 7 He reioyceth in his mercy. 9 He prayeth in his calamitie. 19 He prayseth God for his goodnesse.

¶ [ref]To the chiefe Musician, A Psalme of Dauid.

XXXII ¶ In thee, O LORD, doe I put my trust, let me neuer be ashamed: deliuer me in thy righteousnesse. 2 [fn]Bowe downe thine eare to me, deliuer me speedily: be thou my strong rocke, for an house of defence to saue me. 3 For thou art my rocke and my fortresse: therfore for thy names sake lead me, and guide me. 4 Pull me out of the net, that they haue layd priuily for me: for thou art my strength. 5 [ref]Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed mee, O LORD God of trueth. 6 I haue hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD. 7 I will be glad, and reioyce in thy mercie: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast knowen my soule in aduersities; 8 And hast not shut me vp into the hand of the enemie: thou hast set my feete in a large roome. 9 Haue mercy vpon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble; mine eie is consumed with griefe, yea my soule and my belly. 10 For my life is spent with griefe, and my yeeres with sighing: my strength faileth, because of mine iniquitie, and my bones are consumed. 11 I was a reproch among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a feare to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without, fled from me. 12 [fn]I am forgotten as a dead man out of minde: I am like a broken vessell. 13 For I haue heard the slaunder of many, feare was on euery side: while they tooke counsell together against me, they deuised to take away my life. 14 But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I sayd, Thou art my God. 15 My times are in thy hand: deliuer me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me. 16 Make thy face to shine vpon thy seruant: saue me for thy mercies sake. 17 [fn]Let mee not be ashamed, O LORD, for I haue called vpon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the graue. 18 [fn]Let the lying lippes be put to silence: which speake grieuous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous. 19 [ref]O how great is thy goodnesse, which thou hast layd vp for them that feare thee: which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee, before the sonnes of men! 20 Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence, from the pride of man: thou shalt keepe them secretly in a pauilion, from the strife of tongues. 21 [fn]Blessed be the LORD; for hee hath shewed me his maruellous kindnesse, in a strong citie. 22 For I sayd in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eies: Neuerthelesse thou heardest the voice of my supplications, when I cryed vnto thee. 23 O loue the LORD, all yee his Saints: for the LORD preserueth the faithfull, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. 24 [ref]Be of good courage, and hee shall strenghten your heart: all ye that hope in the LORD.

P S A L. XXXII.

1 Blessednesse consisteth in remission of sinnes. 3 Confession of sinnes giueth ease to the conscience. 8 Gods promises bring ioy.

¶ [ref]A Psalme of Dauid, Maschil.

XXXII ¶ Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiuen, whose sinne is couered. 2 Blessed is the man vnto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquitie: and in whose spirit there is no guile. 3 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old; through my roaring all the day long. 4 For day and night thy hand was heauy vpon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah. 5 [ref]I acknowledged my sin vnto thee, and mine iniquitie haue I not hid: I said, I will confesse my transgressions vnto the LORD; and thou forgauest the iniquitie of my sinne. Selah. 6 [fn]For this shall euery one that is godly pray vnto thee, in a time when thou mayest bee found: surely in the floods of great waters, they shall not come nigh vnto him. 7 [ref]Thou art my hiding place, thou shalt preserue mee from trouble: thou shalt compasse me about with songs of deliuerance. Selah. 8 [fn]I will instruct thee, and teach thee in the way which thou shalt goe: I will guide thee with mine eye. 9 [ref]Be yee not as the horse, or as the mule which haue no vnderstanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, least they come neere vnto thee. 10 Many sorrowes shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compasse him about. 11 Be glad in the LORD, and reioyce yee righteous: and shout for ioy all ye that are vpright in heart.
