Psalms
Chapter 51
1
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bath-sheba. Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2
Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3
For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4
Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
5
Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6
Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt 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 joy and gladness; 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 right spirit within me.
11
Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
12
Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
13
Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.
14
Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
15
O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.
16
For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not 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 thou the walls of Jerusalem.
19
Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.

Chapter 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 mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness:
According to the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2
Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity,
And cleanse me from my sin.
3
For I know my transgressions;
And my sin is ever before me.
4
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 clear when thou judgest.
5
Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity;
And in sin did my mother conceive me.
6
Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts;
And in the hidden part thou wilt make me to know wisdom.
7
Purify me with hyssop, and I shall be clean:
Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8
Make me to hear joy and gladness,
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 right spirit within me.
11
Cast me not away from thy presence;
And take not thy holy Spirit from me.
12
Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation;
And uphold me with a willing spirit.
13
Then will I teach transgressors thy ways;
And sinners shall be converted unto thee.
14
Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation;
And my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
15
O Lord, open thou my lips;
And my mouth shall show forth thy praise.
16
For thou delightest not in 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 thou the walls of Jerusalem.
19
Then wilt thou delight in the sacrifices of righteousness,
In burnt-offering and whole burnt-offering:
Then will they offer bullocks upon thine altar.
