Psalm 51

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:1} Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:2} Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:3} For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin [is] ever before me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:4} 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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:5} Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:6} Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden [part] thou shalt make me to know wisdom. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:7} Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:8} Make me to hear joy and gladness; [that] the bones [which] thou hast broken may rejoice. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:9} Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:10} Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:11} Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:12} Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me [with thy] free spirit. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:13} [Then] will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:14} Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: [and] my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:15} O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:16} For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give [it:] thou delightest not in burnt offering. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:17} The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:18} Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Psalms 51:19} 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.
