The one the Lord doesn’t consider guilty—
    in whose spirit there is no dishonesty—
    that one is truly happy!

    every day, every night!—
because your hand was heavy upon me.
    My energy was sapped as if in a summer drought. Selah

    your hand was heavy(F) on me;
my strength was sapped(G)
    as in the heat of summer.[a]
