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