KING DAVID and BATHSHEBA

PSALM 32: 3-5

 

3 When I kept silent,
    my bones wasted away
    through my groaning all day long.

 

4 For day and night
    your hand was heavy on me;
my strength was sapped
    as in the heat of summer.

 

5 Then I acknowledged my sin to you
    and did not cover up my iniquity.
I said, “I will confess
    my transgressions to the Lord.”
And you forgave
 the guilt of my sin.
