Psalms 51:1-7

1Have mercyH2603 upon me, O GodH430, according to thy lovingkindnessH2617: according unto the multitudeH7230 of thy tender merciesH7356 blot outH4229 my transgressionsH6588.

2WashH3526 me throughlyH7235 from mine iniquityH5771, and cleanseH2891 me from my sinH2403.

3For I acknowledgeH3045 my transgressionsH6588: and my sinH2403 is everH8548 before me.

4Against thee, thee only, have I sinnedH2398, and doneH6213 this evilH7451 in thy sightH5869: that thou mightest be justifiedH6663 when thou speakestH1696, and be clearH2135 when thou judgestH8199.

5Behold, I was shapenH2342 in iniquityH5771; and in sinH2399 did my motherH517 conceiveH3179 me.1

6Behold, thou desirestH2654 truthH571 in the inward partsH2910: and in the hiddenH5640 part thou shalt make me to knowH3045 wisdomH2451.

7PurgeH2398 me with hyssopH231, and I shall be cleanH2891: washH3526 me, and I shall be whiterH3835 than snowH7950.
