Psalm
R. Let the just exult and rejoice in the Lord.
Happy are those whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Happy are those to whom the Lord imputes no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit. R.
Then I acknowledged my sin to you, and I did not hide my iniquity; I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,” and you forgave the guilt of my sin. R.
Therefore let all who are faithful offer prayer to you; at a time of distress, the rush of mighty waters shall not reach them. R.
You are a hiding place for me; you preserve me from trouble; you surround me with glad cries of deliverance. R.
