Psa.|51:Title|-|To the choir director. A |a|Psalm of David, when |*b|Nathan the prophet came to him, after he had gone in to |c|Bath-sheba
Psa.|51:1|-||1|Be gracious to me, O God, according to Your lovingkindness;According to the greatness of Your compassions |2a|blot out my transgressions.
Psa.|51:2|-||a|Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,And from my sin cleanse me.
Psa.|51:3|-|For I do know my transgressions,And my sin is before me continually.
Psa.|51:4|-|Against You and You alone have I |a|sinned,And I have done what is evil in Your sight.
Therefore You are |b|righteous when You speak;You are clear when You judge.
Psa.|51:5|-|Behold, I was |1|brought forth in iniquity,And |a|in sin did my mother |b|conceive me.
Psa.|51:6|-|Behold, You delight in truth in the |1a|inward parts;And in the |1b|hidden part You would make known wisdom to me.
Psa.|51:7|-|Purge my sin with |1a|hyssop, and I will be clean;Wash me, and I will be |b|whiter than snow.
Psa.|51:8|-|Let me hear gladness and joy,That the bones which You have broken may exult.
Psa.|51:9|-|Hide Your face from my sins,And |a|blot out all my iniquities.
Psa.|51:10|-|Create in me a |1a|clean heart, O God,And |2b|renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Psa.|51:11|-|Do not cast me from Your |1a|presence,And do not take the |2b|Spirit of Your holiness away from me.
Psa.|51:12|-|Restore to me the |a|gladness of Your salvation,And sustain me with a willing spirit.
Psa.|51:13|-|I will teach transgressors Your ways,And sinners will turn back to You.
Psa.|51:14|-|Deliver me from the guilt of |a|bloodshed, O God, O God of my salvation;And my tongue will ring forth Your righteousness.
Psa.|51:15|-|O Lord, open my lips,And my mouth will declare Your praise.
Psa.|51:16|-|For You do not delight in sacrifice;Otherwise I would offer it;
You take no pleasure in |a|burnt offerings.
Psa.|51:17|-|The sacrifices of God are a broken |a|spirit;A broken and a |b|contrite heart, O God, You will not despise.
Psa.|51:18|-|Do |1|good in Your good pleasure unto |a|Zion;|b|Build the walls of Jerusalem.
Psa.|51:19|-|Then You will delight in the sacrifices of righteousness,In burnt offerings and whole burnt offerings;
Then they will offer bulls upon Your altar.
