- 1. ¶ HAVE mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness; according to the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my sins.
- 2. Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin;
- 3. For I acknowledge my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me.
- 4. Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done that which is evil in thy sight; for thou wilt be justified in thy reproof, triumphant in thy judgments.
- 5. For behold, I was formed in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
- 6. Behold, thou desirest truth, and the hidden things of thy wisdom thou hast made known to me.
- 7. ¶ Sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
- 8. Satisfy me with thy joy and gladness, that my broken spirit may rejoice.
- 9. Turn thy face away from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
- 10. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.
- 11. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
- 12. Restore to me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy glorious spirit,
- 13. Then will I teach transgressors thy way, and sinners shall be converted unto thee.
- 14. ¶ Deliver me from bloodshedding, O God, thou God of my salvation, and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
- 15. O LORD, open thou my lips, and my mouth shall show forth thy praise;
- 16. For thou desirest not sacrifice; thou &lightest not in burnt offerings.
- 17. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
- 18. Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion; build the walls of Jerusalem.
- 19. Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offerings and whole burnt offerings; then shall they offer gifts upon thine altar.
