Psalms 51

Lexham English Bible LEB

1 Be gracious to me, O God, according to your loyal love. According to your abundant mercies, blot out my transgressions.

2 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and from my sin cleanse me.

3 For {I myself know} my transgressions, and my sin [is] ever before me.

4 Against you, only you, I have sinned and have done this evil in your eyes, so that you are correct when you speak, you are blameless when you judge.

5 Behold, in iniquity I was born, and in sin my mother conceived me.

6 Behold, you delight [in] truth in the inward parts, and in [the] hidden [parts] you make me to know wisdom.

7 Purify me with hyssop, and I shall be clean. Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

8 Make me hear joy and gladness; let [the] bones you have crushed rejoice.

9 Hide your face from my sins, and all my iniquities blot out.

10 Create a clean heart for me, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit {within me}.

11 Do not cast me away from your presence, and do not take your Holy Spirit from me.

12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and with a willing spirit sustain me.

13 [Then] I will teach transgressors your ways, and sinners will turn back to you.

14 Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, the God of my salvation; [then] my tongue will sing aloud [of] your righteousness.

15 O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will proclaim your praise.

16 For you do not delight [in] sacrifice or I would give [it]. [With] a burnt offering you are not pleased.

17 The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit; A broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.

18 Do good in your favor toward Zion. Build the walls of Jerusalem.

19 Then you will delight [in] righteous sacrifices, burnt offering and whole burnt offering. Then bulls will be offered on your altar.

New International Version NIV

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.
