This is the only way to have a spotless conscience. The word here, as all Biblical words in context, gives no ground for irresponsibility on our part. However, the central message is that it is impossible to obtain this blessed state by works, but by trusting the Lord (<A HREF="psalm_32_m.htm#10" TARGET="TRLX_Middle" TITLE="Psalm 32 giving understanding Blessed ">v10</A>).</div> <div> <B> <A NAME="v1"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A></B></div> <div> <A HREF="psalm_32_m.htm#1" TARGET="TRLX_Middle" TITLE="Psalm 32 giving understanding Blessed ">v1</A> -  "removed" is litterally "lifted".</div> <div> <B> <A NAME="v2"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A></B></div> <div> <A HREF="psalm_32_m.htm#2_" TARGET="TRLX_Middle" TITLE="Psalm 32 giving understanding Blessed ">v2</A> - verses 1-2 are quoted by Paul in <A HREF="psalm_32_m.htm#rom4_4" TARGET="TRLX_Middle" TITLE="Psalm 32 giving understanding Blessed ">Romans 4:6-8. </A></div> <div> <B> <A NAME="v3"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A></B></div> <div> <A HREF="psalm_32_m.htm#3_" TARGET="TRLX_Middle" TITLE="Psalm 32 giving understanding Blessed ">v3</A> - "concealed my guilt" is literally "kept silent". Like many others, I believe this refers to David's sin agaist Uriah the Hittite when David committed adultery with Uriah's wife and had Uriah murdered. The prophet Nathan confronted David about this sin after the child conceived by adultery was born, so apparently David was suffering under God's hand for at least 9 months, maybe a year (<A HREF="psalm_32_m.htm#2sam12_9" TARGET="TRLX_Middle" TITLE="Psalm 32 giving understanding Blessed ">2Samuel 12:9-15</A>).</div> <div> <B> <A NAME="v4"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A></B></div> <div> <A HREF="psalm_32_m.htm#4_" TARGET="TRLX_Middle" TITLE="Psalm 32 giving understanding Blessed ">v4</A> - "life" is literally "moisture" or "life sap"</div> <div> "heat" is literally "drought".</div> <div> David was a king.
