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.
Have mercy upon me, O God, according to your loving kindness: according unto the multitude of your tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2 (Increase *QK) wash me from iniquity my and from sin my cleanse me.
Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3 For transgressions my I I know and sin my [is] before me continually.
For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4 To you to alone you - I have sinned and the evil in eyes your I have done so that you may be just when speaking you you will be pure when judging you.
Against you, you only, have I sinned, and done this evil in your sight: that you might be justified when you speak, and be clear when you judge.
5 Here! in iniquity I was brought forth and in sin she conceived me mother my.
Behold, I was formed in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6 Here! faithfulness you desire in the covered places and in a [place] kept secret wisdom you cause to know me.
Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part you shall make me to know wisdom.
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.
Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8 You will make hear me joy and gladness let them rejoice [the] bones [which] you have crushed.
Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which you have broken may rejoice.
9 Hide face your from sins my and all iniquities my wipe out.
Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
10 A heart pure create for me O God and a spirit steadfast renew in inner being my.
Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
11 May not you cast me from to before you and [the] spirit of holiness your may not you take from me.
Cast me not away from your presence; and take not your holy spirit from me.
12 Restore! to me [the] joy of salvation your and a spirit willing you will sustain me.
Restore unto me the joy of your salvation; and uphold me with your free spirit.
13 I will teach transgressors ways your and sinners to you they will return.
Then will I teach transgressors your ways; and sinners shall be converted unto you.
14 Deliver me from blood - O God [the] God of salvation my it will shout for joy tongue my righteousness your.
Deliver me from blood guiltiness, O God, you God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of your righteousness.
15 O Lord lips my you will open and mouth my it will declare praise your.
O Lord, open you my lips; and my mouth shall show forth your praise.
16 For - not you desire sacrifice and I will give [it] burnt offering not you are pleased with.
For you desire not sacrifice; else would I give it: you delight not in burnt offering.
17 [the] sacrifices of God [are] a spirit broken a heart broken and crushed O God not you despise.
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.
18 Do good to! in favor your Zion you will build [the] walls of Jerusalem.
Do good in your good pleasure unto Zion: build you 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.
Then shall you be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon your altar.
