3 When I kept silence * h2790 h8689, my bones * h6106 waxed old * h1086 h8804 through my roaring * h7581 all the day * h3117 long.
4 For day * h3119 and night * h3915 thy hand * h3027 was heavy * h3513 h8799 upon me: my moisture * h3955 is turned * h2015 h8738 into the drought * h2725 of summer * h7019. Selah * h5542.
5 I acknowledged * h3045 h8686 my sin * h2403 unto thee, and mine iniquity * h5771 have I not hid * h3680 h8765. I said * h559 h8804, I will confess * h3034 h8686 my transgressions * h6588 unto the LORD * h3068; and thou forgavest * h5375 h8804 the iniquity * h5771 of my sin * h2403. Selah * h5542.
6 For this shall every one that is godly * h2623 pray * h6419 h8691 unto thee in a time * h6256 when thou mayest be found * h4672 h8800: surely in the floods * h7858 of great * h7227 waters * h4325 they shall not come nigh * h5060 h8686 unto him. when...: Heb. of finding

8 I will instruct * h7919 h8686 thee and teach * h3384 h8686 thee in the way * h1870 which * h2098 thou shalt go * h3212 h8799: I will guide * h3289 h8799 thee with mine eye * h5869. guide...: Heb. counsel thee, mine eye shall be upon thee

10 Many * h7227 sorrows * h4341 shall be to the wicked * h7563: but he that trusteth * h982 h8802 in the LORD * h3068, mercy * h2617 shall compass * h5437 h8779 him about.
11 Be glad * h8055 h8798 in the LORD * h3068, and rejoice * h1523 h8798, ye righteous * h6662: and shout * h7442 h8685 for joy, all ye that are upright * h3477 in heart * h3820.
