¹ [1] ⓐ Blessed is the one whoseⓑ transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.

² Blessed is the man against whom the LORDⓒ counts no iniquity, and in whose spiritⓓ there is no deceit.

³ For when I kept silent, myⓔ bones wasted away through myⓕ groaning all day long.

⁴ For day and night yourⓖ hand was heavy upon me; my strength was dried up[2] as by the heat of summer. Selah

⁵ Iⓗ acknowledged my sin to you, and I did not cover my iniquity; I said, “Iⓘ will confess my transgressions to the LORD,” and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah

⁶ Therefore let everyone who isⓙ godly offer prayer to you at a time when youⓚ may be found; surely in the rush ofⓛ great waters, they shall not reach him.

⁷ You are aⓜ hiding place for me; you preserve me fromⓝ trouble; you surround me withⓞ shouts of deliverance. Selah

⁸ I willⓟ instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I willⓠ counsel you with my eye upon you.

⁹ ⓡ Be not like a horse or a mule, without understanding, which must be curbed withⓢ bit and bridle, or it will not stay near you.

¹⁰ ⓣ Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but steadfast love surrounds the one whoⓤ trusts in the LORD.

¹¹ ⓥ Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, O righteous, andⓦ shout for joy, all youⓧ upright in heart!
