32 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.

² Blessed is the man unto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.

³ When I kept silent, my bones waxed old through my groaning all the day long.

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

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

⁶ For this shall every one that is godly pray unto Thee in a time when Thou mayest be found; surely the floods of great waters shall not come nigh unto him.

⁷ Thou art my hiding place; Thou shalt preserve me from trouble; Thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah

⁸ “I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go; I will guide thee with Mine eye.

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 not come near unto thee.”

¹⁰ Many shall be the sorrows of the wicked; but he that trusteth in the Lord, mercy shall compass him about.

¹¹ Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, ye righteous; and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart!

51 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Thy lovingkindness; according unto the multitude of Thy tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.

² Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

³ For I acknowledge my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me.

⁴ Against Thee, Thee only, have I sinned and done this evil in Thy sight, that Thou mightest be justified when Thou speakest, and be clear when Thou judgest.

⁵ Behold, I was shaped in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me.

⁶ Behold, Thou desirest truth in my inward parts; in the hidden part Thou shalt make me to know wisdom.

⁷ Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

⁸ Make me to hear joy and gladness, that the bones which Thou hast broken may rejoice.

⁹ Hide Thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.

¹⁰ Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.

¹¹ Cast me not away from Thy presence, and take not Thy holy Spirit from me.

¹² Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation, and uphold me with Thy free Spirit.

¹³ Then will I teach transgressors Thy ways, and sinners shall be converted unto Thee.

¹⁴ Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, Thou God of my salvation, and my tongue shall sing aloud of Thy righteousness.

¹⁵ O Lord, open Thou my lips, and my mouth shall show forth Thy praise.

¹⁶ For Thou desirest not sacrifice, else would I give it; Thou delightest not in burnt offering.

¹⁷ The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God, Thou wilt not despise.

¹⁸ Do good in Thy good pleasure unto Zion; build Thou the walls of Jerusalem.

¹⁹ Then shalt Thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering; then shall they offer bullocks upon Thine altar.

86 Bow down Thine ear, O Lord; hear me, for I am poor and needy.

² Preserve my soul, for I am holy; O Thou my God, save Thy servant that trusteth in Thee.

³ Be merciful unto me, O Lord, for I cry unto Thee daily.

⁴ Make the soul of Thy servant rejoice, for unto Thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

⁵ For Thou, Lord, art good and ready to forgive, and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon Thee.

⁶ Give ear, O Lord, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.

⁷ In the day of my trouble I will call upon Thee, for Thou wilt answer me.

⁸ Among the gods there is none like unto Thee, O Lord; neither are there any works like unto Thy works.

⁹ All nations whom Thou hast made shall come and worship before Thee, O Lord, and shall glorify Thy name.

¹⁰ For Thou art great and doest wondrous things: Thou alone art God.

¹¹ Teach me Thy way, O Lord; I will walk in Thy truth; unite my heart to fear Thy name.

¹² I will praise Thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart, and I will glorify Thy name for evermore.

¹³ For great is Thy mercy toward me, and Thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.

¹⁴ O God, the proud have risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul, and have not set Thee before them.

¹⁵ But Thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.

¹⁶ O turn unto me and have mercy upon me; give Thy strength unto Thy servant, and save the son of Thine handmaid.

¹⁷ Show me a token for good, that they that hate me may see it and be ashamed, because Thou, Lord, hast helped me and comforted me.

122 I was glad when they said unto me, “Let us go into the house of the Lord.”

² Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

³ Jerusalem is built as a city that is united together,

⁴ whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, according to the testimony of Israel to give thanks unto the name of the Lord.

⁵ For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

⁶ Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “They shall prosper that love thee.

⁷ Peace be within thy walls and prosperity within thy palaces.”

⁸ For my brethren and companions’ sakes I will now say, “Peace be within thee.”

⁹ Because of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek thy good.
