Psalms 51:7-17

Psalms 51:7-17

[7] Purge  me with hyssop,  and I shall be clean:  wash  me, and I shall be whiter  than snow.  [8] Make me to hear  joy  and gladness;  that the bones  which thou hast broken  may rejoice.  [9] Hide  thy face  from my sins,  and blot out  all mine iniquities.  [10] Create  in me a clean  heart,  O God;  and renew  a right  spirit  within  me. [11] Cast me not away  from thy presence;  and take  not thy holy  spirit  [12] Restore  unto me the joy  of thy salvation;  and uphold  me with thy free  spirit.  [13] Then will I teach  transgressors  thy ways;  and sinners  shall be converted  [14] Deliver  me from bloodguiltiness,  O God,  of my salvation:  and my tongue  shall sing aloud  of thy righteousness.  [15] O Lord,  open  thou my lips;  and my mouth  shall shew forth  thy praise.  [16] For thou desirest  not sacrifice;  else would I give  it: thou delightest  not in burnt offering.  [17] The sacrifices  of God  are a broken  spirit:  a broken  and a contrite  heart,  O God,  thou wilt not despise.
