Psalms 32:9-11 ASV
(9) Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding; Whose trappings must be bit and bridle to hold them in, Else they will not come near unto thee. (10) Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; But he that trusteth in Jehovah, lovingkindness shall compass him about. (11) Be glad in Jehovah, and rejoice, ye righteous; And shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.

Psalms 32:9-11 MKJV
(9) Be not like the horse, or like the mule, who have no understanding, whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, so that they do not come near you. (10) The wicked has many sorrows, but mercy embraces him who trusts in Jehovah. (11) Be glad in Jehovah, and rejoice, you righteous; and shout for joy, all you upright in heart.

Psalms 32:9-11 YLT
(9) Be ye not as a horse--as a mule, Without understanding, With bridle and bit, its ornaments, to curb, Not to come near unto thee. (10) Many are the pains of the wicked; As to him who is trusting in Jehovah, Kindness doth compass him. (11) Be glad in Jehovah, and rejoice, ye righteous, And sing, all ye upright of heart!

Psalms 32:9-11 Darby
(9) Be ye not as a horse, as a mule, which have no understanding: whose trappings must be bit and bridle, for restraint, or they will not come unto thee. (10) Many sorrows hath the wicked; but he that confideth in Jehovah, loving-kindness shall encompass him. (11) Rejoice in Jehovah, and be glad, ye righteous; and shout for joy, all ye upright in heart.

Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
