Chapter 51

1


 

  {To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David; when Nathan the prophet came to him, after he had gone in to Bath-sheba.} Be gracious unto me, O God, according to thy loving-kindness; according to the abundance of thy tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.  

 

 

--

2


 

  Wash me fully from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.  

 

 

--

3


 

  For I acknowledge my transgressions, and my sin is continually before me.  

 

 

--

4


 

  Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done what is evil in thy sight; that thou mayest be justified when thou speakest, be clear when thou judgest.  

 

 

--

5


 

  Behold, in iniquity was I brought forth, and in sin did my mother conceive me.  

 

 

--

6


 

  Behold, thou wilt have truth in the inward parts; and in the hidden [part] thou wilt make me to know wisdom.  

 

 

--

7


 

  Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.  

 

 

--

8


 

  Make me to hear gladness and joy; [that] the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.  

 

 

--

9


 

  Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.  

 

 

--

10


 

  Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.  

 

 

--

11


 

  Cast me not away from thy presence, and take not the spirit of thy holiness from me.  

 

 

--

12


 

  Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, and let a willing spirit sustain me.  

 

 

--

13


 

  I will teach transgressors thy ways, and sinners shall return unto thee.  

 

 

--

14


 

  Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.  

 

 

--

15


 

  Lord, open my lips, and my mouth shall declare thy praise.  

 

 

--

16


 

  For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou hast no pleasure in burnt-offering.  

 

 

--

17


 

  The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.  

 

 

--

18


 

  Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion; build the walls of Jerusalem.  

 

 

--

19


 

  Then shalt thou have sacrifices of righteousness, burnt-offering, and whole burnt-offering; then shall they offer up bullocks upon thine altar.
