Psalm 32:6

The Joy Of Forgiveness

⁵ I made my wrongdoing clear to you, and did not keep back my sin. I said, I will put it all before the Lord; and you took away my wrongdoing and my sin. (Selah.) ⁶ For this cause let every saint make his prayer to you at a time when you are near: then the overflowing of the great waters will not overtake him. ⁷ You are my safe and secret place; you will keep me from trouble; you will put songs of salvation on the lips of those who are round me. (Selah.)
