Psalms 51:3-6
3For 1I 2know my transgressions, And my sin is ever before me.43Against You, You only, I have sinned And done what is 4evil in Your sight, So that 5You 6are justified 7when You speak And 8blameless when You judge.
5Behold, I was 9brought forth in iniquity, And in sin my mother conceived me.6Behold, You desire 10truth in the 11innermost being, And in the hidden part You will 12make me know wisdom.
