Psalms 51:13-17

13Then I will teach transgressors Your ways, And sinners shall be converted and return to You.

14Rescue me from bloodguiltiness, O God, the God of my salvation; Then my tongue will sing joyfully of Your righteousness and Your justice.

15O Lord, open my lips, That my mouth may declare Your praise.

16For You do not delight in sacrifice, or else I would give it; You are not pleased with burnt offering.

17My [only] sacrifice [acceptable] to God is a broken spirit; A broken and contrite heart [broken with sorrow for sin, thoroughly penitent], such, O God, You will not despise.
