321 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
321 Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
321 Count yourself lucky, how happy you must be - you get a fresh start, your slate's wiped clean.
321 A Psalm of David. A Contemplation. Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered.
321 Oh, what joy for those whose disobedience is forgiven, whose sin is put out of sight!
2 Blessed is the one whose sin the Lord does not count against them and in whose spirit is no deceit.
2 Blessed is the man unto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.
2 Blessed is the man against whom the Lord counts no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit.
2 Count yourself lucky - God holds nothing against you and you're holding nothing back from him.
2 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord does not impute iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no deceit.
2 Yes, what joy for those whose record the Lord has cleared of guilt, whose lives are lived in complete honesty!
(Read Psalm 32:1-2)
Sin is the cause of our misery; but the true believer's transgressions of the Divine law are all forgiven, being covered with the atonement. Christ bare his sins, therefore they are not imputed to him. The righteousness of Christ being reckoned to us, and we being made the righteousness of God in him, our iniquity is not imputed, God having laid upon him the iniquity of us all, and made him a sin-offering for us. Not to impute sin, is God's act, for he is the Judge. It is God that justifies. Notice the character of him whose sins are pardoned; he is sincere, and seeks sanctification by the power of the Holy Ghost. He does not profess to repent, with an intention to indulge in sin, because the Lord is ready to forgive. He will not abuse the doctrine of free grace. And to the man whose iniquity is forgiven, all manner of blessings are promised.
