The providence of God

(Romans 4:1-12)

A psalm of David. A maschil. Blessed is the person whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.

Blessed is the man to whom Yahweh reckons no guilt and in whose spirit there is no deceit.

When I remained silent, my bones were wasting away while I groaned all day long.

For day and night your hand was heavy upon me. My strength withered as in summer drought. Selah.

Then I acknowledged my sin to you, and I no longer hid my iniquity. I said, “I will confess my transgressions to Yahweh,” and you forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah.

Because of this, all who are godly should pray to you at a time of great distress. Then when the surging waters overflow, they will not reach those people.

You are my hiding place; you will guard me from trouble. You will surround me with the songs of victory. Selah.

I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go. I will instruct you with my eye upon you.

Do not be like a horse or like a mule, which have no understanding; it is only with bridle and bit to control them that they will go where you want them to.

The wicked have many sorrows, but Yahweh’s covenant faithfulness will surround the one who trusts in him.

Be glad in Yahweh, and rejoice, you righteous; shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart.

The providence of God

(Romans 4:1-12)

Blessed is he whose disobedience is forgiven, whose sin is covered.

Blessed is the man to whom the LORD doesn’t impute iniquity, in whose spirit there is no deceit.

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

For day and night your hand was heavy on me. My strength was sapped in the heat of summer. Selah.

I acknowledged my sin to you. I didn’t hide my iniquity. I said, I will confess my transgressions to the LORD, and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah.

For this, let everyone who is godly pray to you in a time when you may be found. Surely when the great waters overflow, they shall not reach to him.

You are my hiding place. You will preserve me from trouble. You will surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah.

I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go. I will counsel you with my eye on you.

Don’t be like the horse, or like the mule, which have no understanding, who are controlled by bit and bridle, or else they will not come near to you.

Many sorrows come to the wicked, but loving kindness shall surround him who trusts in the LORD.

Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, you righteous! Shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart!
