For the Leader. A Psalm of David;
51,2
When Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bath-sheba.
51,3
Be gracious unto me, O God, according to Thy mercy; according to the multitude of Thy compassions blot out my transgressions.
51,4
Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
51,5
For I know my transgressions; and my sin is ever before me.
51,6
Against Thee, Thee only, have I sinned, and done that which is evil in Thy sight; that Thou mayest be justified when Thou speakest, and be in the right when Thou judgest.
51,7
Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me.
51,8
Behold, Thou desirest truth in the inward parts; make me, therefore, to know wisdom in mine inmost heart.
51,9
Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
51,10
Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which Thou hast crushed may rejoice.
51,11
Hide Thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
51,12
Create me a clean heart, O God; and renew a stedfast spirit within me.
51,13
Cast me not away from Thy presence; and take not Thy holy spirit from me.
51,14
Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation; and let a willing spirit uphold me.
51,15
Then will I teach transgressors Thy ways; and sinners shall return unto Thee.
51,16
Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, Thou God of my salvation; so shall my tongue sing aloud of Thy righteousness.
51,17
O Lord, open Thou my lips; and my mouth shall declare Thy praise.
51,18
For Thou delightest not in sacrifice, else would I give it; Thou hast no pleasure in burnt-offering.
51,19
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God, Thou wilt not despise.
51,20
Do good in Thy favour unto Zion; build Thou the walls of Jerusalem.
51,21
Then wilt Thou delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, in burnt-offering and whole offering; then will they offer bullocks upon Thine altar.
