Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible
Psalms 32
XXXII. Pardon of Sin.
Psalms 32:1 f. The joy of Divine pardon.
Psalms 32:3-5. Sin remitted on confession.
Psalms 32:6 f. The security of the godly. Read, "in time of stress" and omit "surely."
Psalms 32:8. Their guidance by God. The general sense is "Do not wait till affliction compels recourse to God."
Psalms 32:9. Read, "Be not like horse and mule which have no understanding, which must be brought to thee by bit and bridle." The rest of the verse is probably a gloss.
