<To the chief Musician, <H5329> A Psalm <H4210> of David, <H1732> when Nathan <H5416> the prophet <H5030> came <H0935> unto him, after he had gone in <H0935> to Bathsheba.> <H1339> Have mercy <H2603> upon me, O God, <H0430> according to thy lovingkindness: <H2617> according unto the multitude <H7230> of thy tender mercies <H7356> blot out <H4229> my transgressions. <H6588>
2
Wash <H3526> me throughly <H7235> from mine iniquity, <H5771> and cleanse <H2891> me from my sin. <H2403>
3
For I acknowledge <H3045> my transgressions: <H6588> and my sin <H2403> [is] ever <H8548> before me.
4
Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, <H2398> and done <H6213> [this] evil <H7451> in thy sight: <H5869> that thou mightest be justified <H6663> when thou speakest, <H1696> [and] be clear <H2135> when thou judgest. <H8199>
5
Behold, I was shapen <H2342> in iniquity; <H5771> and in sin <H2399> did my mother <H0517> conceive <H3179> me.
6
Behold, thou desirest <H2654> truth <H0571> in the inward parts: <H2910> and in the hidden <H5640> [part] thou shalt make me to know <H3045> wisdom. <H2451>
7
Purge <H2398> me with hyssop, <H0231> and I shall be clean: <H2891> wash <H3526> me, and I shall be whiter <H3835> than snow. <H7950>
8
Make me to hear <H8085> joy <H8342> and gladness; <H8057> [that] the bones <H6106> [which] thou hast broken <H1794> may rejoice. <H1523>
9
Hide <H5641> thy face <H6440> from my sins, <H2399> and blot out <H4229> all mine iniquities. <H5771>
10
Create <H1254> in me a clean <H2889> heart, <H3820> O God; <H0430> and renew <H2318> a right <H3559> spirit <H7307> within <H7130> me.
11
Cast me not away <H7993> from thy presence; <H6440> and take <H3947> not thy holy <H6944> spirit <H7307> from me.
12
Restore <H7725> unto me the joy <H8342> of thy salvation; <H3468> and uphold <H5564> me [with thy] free <H5081> spirit. <H7307>
13
[Then] will I teach <H3925> transgressors <H6586> thy ways; <H1870> and sinners <H2400> shall be converted <H7725> unto thee.
14
Deliver <H5337> me from bloodguiltiness, <H1818> O God, <H0430> thou God <H0430> of my salvation: <H8668> [and] my tongue <H3956> shall sing aloud <H7442> of thy righteousness. <H6666>
15
O Lord, <H0136> open <H6605> thou my lips; <H8193> and my mouth <H6310> shall shew forth <H5046> thy praise. <H8416>
16
For thou desirest <H2654> not sacrifice; <H2077> else would I give <H5414> [it]: thou delightest <H7521> not in burnt offering. <H5930>
17
The sacrifices <H2077> of God <H0430> [are] a broken <H7665> spirit: <H7307> a broken <H7665> and a contrite <H1794> heart, <H3820> O God, <H0430> thou wilt not despise. <H0959>
18
Do good <H3190> in thy good pleasure <H7522> unto Zion: <H6726> build <H1129> thou the walls <H2346> of Jerusalem. <H3389>
19
Then shalt thou be pleased <H2654> with the sacrifices <H2077> of righteousness, <H6664> with burnt offering <H5930> and whole <H3632> burnt offering: then shall they offer <H5927> bullocks <H6499> upon thine altar. <H4196>
