A Broken Spirit And A Contrite Heart By Sons Of Korah​



Psalms 51

1 Have mercy on me, O God,
according to your unfailing love;
according to your great compassion
blot out my transgressions.​
2 Wash away all my iniquity
and cleanse me from my sin.​

3 For I know my transgressions,
and my sin is always before me.​
4 Against you, you only, have I sinned
and done what is evil in your sight;
so you are right in your verdict
and justified when you judge.​
5 Surely I was sinful at birth,
sinful from the time my mother conceived me.​
6 Yet you desired faithfulness even in the womb;
you taught me wisdom in that secret place.​

7 Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean;
wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.​
8 Let me hear joy and gladness;
let the bones you have crushed rejoice.​
9 Hide your face from my sins
and blot out all my iniquity.​

10 Create in me a pure heart, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me.​
11 Do not cast me from your presence
or take your Holy Spirit from me.​
12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation
and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.​

13 Then I will teach transgressors your ways,
so that sinners will turn back to you.​
14 Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God,
you who are God my Savior,
and my tongue will sing of your righteousness.​
15 Open my lips, Lord,
and my mouth will declare your praise.​
16 You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it;
you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings.​
17 My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart
you, God, will not despise.​
18 May it please you to prosper Zion,
to build up the walls of Jerusalem.​
19 Then you will delight in the sacrifices of the righteous,
in burnt offerings offered whole;
then bulls will be offered on your altar.


A Prayer Of Repentance
