Psalm 32:3-5
Holman Christian Standard Bible
3 When I kept silent, my bones became brittle
from my groaning all day long.(A)
4 For day and night Your hand was heavy on me;(B)
my strength was drained[a]
as in the summer’s heat.(C)
5 Then I acknowledged my sin to You
and did not conceal my iniquity.
I said,
“I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,”
and You took away the guilt of my sin.(D)
