Psalms 32:3

Guilt and conscienceRepentanceShame

1 Blessed is he whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.

2 Blessed is the man whose iniquity the LORD does not count against him, in whose spirit there is no deceit.

When I kept silent, my bones became brittle from my groaning all day long.

4 For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me; my strength was drained as in the summer heat. Selah

5 Then I acknowledged my sin to You and did not hide my iniquity. I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD,” and You forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah
