The Joy of Forgiveness

Romans 4:1–12

1<Of David. Maschil.> Happy is he who has forgiveness for his wrongdoing, and whose sin is covered.+ 2Happy is the man in whom the Lord sees no evil, and in whose spirit there is no deceit.+ 3When I kept my mouth shut, my bones were wasted, because of my crying all through the day.+ 4For the weight of your hand was on me day and night; my body became dry like the earth in summer. (Selah.)+ 5I made my wrongdoing clear to you, and did not keep back my sin. I said, I will put it all before the Lord; and you took away my wrongdoing and my sin. (Selah.)+ 6For this cause let every saint make his prayer to you at a time when you are near: then the overflowing of the great waters will not overtake him.+ 7You are my safe and secret place; you will keep me from trouble; you will put songs of salvation on the lips of those who are round me. (Selah.)+ 8I will give you knowledge, teaching you the way to go; my eye will be your guide.+ 9Do not be like the horse or the ass, without sense; ...+ 10The sinner will be full of trouble; but mercy will be round the man who has faith in the Lord.+ 11Be glad in the Lord with joy, you upright men; give cries of joy, all you whose hearts are true.+
