Discovery BoxPsalms 32:5 
Context32:5 Then I confessed my sin;
I no longer covered up my wrongdoing.
I said, “I will confess 1 my rebellious acts to the Lord.”
And then you forgave my sins. 2 (Selah)
Psalms 32:7
Context32:7 You are my hiding place;
you protect me from distress.
You surround me with shouts of joy from those celebrating deliverance. 3 (Selah)
1 tn The Hiphil of ידה normally means “give thanks, praise,” but here, as in Prov 28:13, it means “confess.”
2 tn Heb “the wrongdoing of my sin.” By joining synonyms for “sin” in this way, the psalmist may be emphasizing the degree of his wrongdoing.
3 tn Heb “[with] shouts of joy of deliverance you surround me.”
