51:1
Be merciful to me, O God, because of your constant love. Because of your great
mercy wipe away my sins!
51:2
Wash away all my evil and make me clean from my sin!
51:3
I recognize my faults; I am always conscious of my sins.
51:4
I have sinned against you---only against you--- and done what you consider
evil. So you are right in judging me; you are justified in condemning me.
51:5
I have been evil from the day I was born; from the time I was conceived, I have
been sinful.
51:6
Sincerity and truth are what you require; fill my mind with your wisdom.
51:7
Remove my sin, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
51:8
Let me hear the sounds of joy and gladness; and though you have crushed me and
broken me, I will be happy once again.
51:9
Close your eyes to my sins and wipe out all my evil.
51:10
Create a pure heart in me, O God, and put a new and loyal spirit in me.
51:11
Do not banish me from your presence; do not take your holy spirit away from me.
51:12
Give me again the joy that comes from your salvation, and make me willing to
obey you.
51:13
Then I will teach sinners your commands, and they will turn back to you.
51:14
Spare my life, O God, and save me, and I will gladly proclaim your
righteousness.
51:15
Help me to speak, Lord, and I will praise you.
51:16
You do not want sacrifices, or I would offer them; you are not pleased with
burnt offerings.
51:17
My sacrifice is a humble spirit, O God; you will not reject a humble and
repentant heart.
51:18
O God, be kind to Zion and help her; rebuild the walls of Jerusalem.
51:19
Then you will be pleased with proper sacrifices and with our burnt offerings;
and bulls will be sacrificed on your altar.
