Psalms:51:1-17
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Have mercy upon me ,
O God ,
according to thy lovingkindness :
according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions .
*
Wash me throughly from mine iniquity ,
and cleanse me from my sin .
*
For I acknowledge my transgressions :
and my sin is ever before me .
*
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 .
*
Behold ,
I was shapen in iniquity ;
and in sin did my mother conceive me .
*
Behold ,
thou desirest truth in the inward parts :
and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom .
*
Purge me with hyssop ,
and I shall be clean :
wash me ,
and I shall be whiter than snow .
*
Make me to hear joy and gladness ;
that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice .
*
Hide thy face from my sins ,
and blot out all mine iniquities .
*
Create in me a clean heart ,
O God ;
and renew a right spirit within me .
*
Cast me not away from thy presence ;
and take not thy holy spirit from me .
*
Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation ;
and uphold me with thy free spirit .
*
Then will I teach transgressors thy ways ;
and sinners shall be converted unto thee .
*
Deliver me from bloodguiltiness ,
O God ,
thou God of my salvation :
and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness .
*
O Lord ,
open thou my lips ;
and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise .
*
For thou desirest not sacrifice ;
else would I give it :
thou delightest not in burnt offering .
*
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit :
a broken and a contrite heart ,
O God ,
thou wilt not despise .
