Psalms 51:14-19

14Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, The God of my salvation, And my tongue shall sing aloud of Your righteousness.

15O Lord, open my lips, And my mouth shall show forth Your praise.

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

17The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, A broken and a contrite heart— These, O God, You will not despise.

18Do good in Your good pleasure to Zion; Build the walls of Jerusalem.

19Then You shall be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, With burnt offering and whole burnt offering; Then they shall offer bulls on Your altar.
