1 Ѱало́мъ дв҃дꙋ, ра́зꙋма, Бл҃же́ни, и҆́хже ѡ҆ста́вишасѧ беззакѡ́нїѧ, и҆ и҆́хже прикры́шасѧ грѣсѝ.
32:1 By David. A contemplative psalm. Blessed is he whose disobedience is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
2 Бл҃же́нъ мꙋ́жъ, є҆мꙋ́же не вмѣни́тъ гдⷭ҇ь грѣха̀, нижѐ є҆́сть во ᲂу҆стѣ́хъ є҆гѡ̀ ле́сть.
32:2 Blessed is the man to whom Yahweh doesn’t impute iniquity, in whose spirit there is no deceit.
3 Ꙗ҆́кѡ ᲂу҆молча́хъ, ѡ҆бетша́ша кѡ́сти моѧ̑, ѿ є҆́же зва́ти мѝ ве́сь де́нь,
32:3 When I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.
4 ꙗ҆́кѡ де́нь и҆ но́щь ѡ҆тѧготѣ̀ на мнѣ̀ рꙋка̀ твоѧ̀: возврати́хсѧ на стра́сть, є҆гда̀ ᲂу҆нзе́ ми те́рнъ.
32:4 For day and night your hand was heavy on me. My strength was sapped in the heat of summer. Selah.
5 Беззако́нїе моѐ позна́хъ и҆ грѣха̀ моегѡ̀ не покры́хъ, рѣ́хъ: и҆сповѣ́мъ на мѧ̀ беззако́нїе моѐ гдⷭ҇еви: и҆ ты̀ ѡ҆ста́вилъ є҆сѝ нече́стїе се́рдца моегѡ̀.
32:5 I acknowledged my sin to you. I didn’t hide my iniquity. I said, I will confess my transgressions to Yahweh, and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah.
6 За то̀ помо́литсѧ къ тебѣ̀ всѧ́къ прпⷣбный во вре́мѧ благопотре́бно: ѻ҆ба́че въ пото́пѣ во́дъ мно́гихъ къ немꙋ̀ не прибли́жатсѧ.
32:6 For this, let everyone who is godly pray to you in a time when you may be found. Surely when the great waters overflow, they shall not reach to him.
7 Ты̀ є҆сѝ прибѣ́жище моѐ ѿ ско́рби ѡ҆бдержа́щїѧ мѧ̀: ра́досте моѧ̀, и҆зба́ви мѧ̀ ѿ ѡ҆быше́дшихъ мѧ̀.
32:7 You are my hiding place. You will preserve me from trouble. You will surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah.
8 Вразꙋмлю́ тѧ, и҆ наста́влю тѧ̀ на пꙋ́ть се́й, во́ньже по́йдеши: ᲂу҆твержꙋ̀ на тѧ̀ ѻ҆́чи моѝ.
32:8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go. I will counsel you with my eye on you.
9 Не бꙋ́дите ꙗ҆́кѡ ко́нь и҆ ме́скъ, и҆́мже нѣ́сть ра́зꙋма: брозда́ми и҆ ᲂу҆здо́ю чє́люсти и҆́хъ востѧ́гнеши, не приближа́ющихсѧ къ тебѣ̀.
32:9 Don’t be like the horse, or like the mule, which have no understanding, who are controlled by bit and bridle, or else they will not come near to you.
10 Мнѡ́ги ра̑ны грѣ́шномꙋ: ᲂу҆пова́ющаго же на гдⷭ҇а млⷭ҇ть ѡ҆бы́детъ.
32:10 Many sorrows come to the wicked, but loving kindness shall surround him who trusts in Yahweh.
11 Весели́тесѧ ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ и҆ ра́дꙋйтесѧ првⷣнїи, и҆ хвали́тесѧ, всѝ пра́вїи срⷣцемъ.
32:11 Be glad in Yahweh, and rejoice, you righteous! Shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart!

Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
