Psalm 51:1 ¶{For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David; when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bath-sheba.} Have mercy2603 on me, God,430 according to your loving kindness.2617 According to the multitude7230 of your tender mercies,7356 blot out4229 my transgressions.65882 Wash3526 me thoroughly7235 from my iniquity.5771 Cleanse2891 me from my sin.24033 For I know3045 my transgressions.6588 My sin2403 is constantly8548 before me.
4 Against you, and you only, have I sinned,2398 and done6213 that which is evil7451 in your sight;5869 that you may be proved right2135 when you speak,1696 and justified2135 when you judge.81995 Behold, I was brought forth2342 in iniquity.5771 In sin2399 my mother517 conceived3179 me.
6 Behold, you desire2654 truth571 in the inward parts.2910 You teach3045 me wisdom2451 in the inmost5640 place.
7 Purify2398 me with hyssop,231 and I will be clean.2891 Wash3526 me, and I will be whiter3835 than snow.79508 Let me hear8085 joy8342 and gladness,8342 That the bones6106 which you have broken1794 may rejoice.15239 Hide5641 your face6440 from my sins,2399 and blot out4229 all of my iniquities.577110 Create1254 in me a clean2889 heart,3820 O God.430 Renew2318 a right3559 spirit7307 within7130 me.
11 Don't throw7993 me from your presence,6440 and don't take3947 your holy6944 Spirit7307 from me.
12 Restore7725 to me the joy8342 of your salvation.3468 Uphold5564 me with a willing5081 spirit.730713 Then I will teach3925 transgressors6586 your ways.1870 Sinners2400 shall be converted7725 to you.
14 Deliver5337 me from bloodguiltiness,1818 O God,430 the God430 of my salvation.8668 My tongue3956 shall sing aloud7442 of your righteousness.666615 Lord,136 open6605 my lips.8193 My mouth6310 shall declare5046 your praise.841616 For you don't delight2654 in sacrifice,2077 or else I would give5414 it. You have no pleasure7521 in burnt offering.593017 The sacrifices2077 of God430 are a broken7665 spirit.7307 A broken7665 and contrite1794 heart,3820 O God,430 you will not despise.959
Psalm 51:18 ¶ Do well in your good3190 pleasure7522 to Zion.6726 Build1129 the walls2346 of Jerusalem.338919 Then you will delight2654 in the sacrifices2077 of righteousness,6664 in burnt offerings5930 and in whole3632 burnt offerings.5930 Then they will offer5927 bulls6499 on your altar.4196
