< Psalms 51 >
1 To the choirmaster a psalm of David. When came to him Nathan the prophet just when he had gone into Bath-sheba. Show favor to me O God according to covenant loyalty your according to [the] greatness of compassion your wipe out transgressions my.
2 (Increase *Q(K)*) wash me from iniquity my and from sin my cleanse me.
3 For transgressions my I I know and sin my [is] before me continually.
4 To you to alone you - I have sinned and the evil in view your I have done so that you may be just when speaking you you will be pure when judging you.
5 Here! in iniquity I was brought forth and in sin she conceived me mother my.
6 Here! faithfulness you desire in the covered places and in a [place] kept secret wisdom you cause to know me.
7 You will cleanse from sin me with hyssop so I may be pure you will wash me and more than snow I will become white.
8 You will make hear me joy and gladness let them rejoice [the] bones [which] you have crushed.
9 Hide face your from sins my and all iniquities my wipe out.
10 A heart pure create for me O God and a spirit steadfast renew in inner being my.
11 May not you cast me from to before you and [the] spirit of holiness your may not you take from me.
12 Restore! to me [the] joy of salvation your and a spirit willing you will sustain me.
13 I will teach transgressors ways your and sinners to you they will return.
14 Deliver me from blood - O God [the] God of salvation my it will shout for joy tongue my righteousness your.
15 O Lord lips my you will open and mouth my it will declare praise your.
16 For - not you desire sacrifice and I will give [it] burnt offering not you are pleased with.
17 [the] sacrifices of God [are] a spirit broken a heart broken and crushed O God not you despise.
18 Do good to! in favor your Zion you will build [the] walls of Jerusalem.
19 Then you will delight in sacrifices of righteousness burnt offering and whole offering then people will offer up on altar your young bulls.
