Psalms 51:1-10

BBE

NIV

1 <To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David. When Nathan the prophet came to him, after he had gone in to Bath-sheba.> Have pity on me, O God, in your mercy; out of a full heart, take away my sin.
1 Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions.
2 Let all my wrongdoing be washed away, and make me clean from evil.
2 Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.
3 For I am conscious of my error; my sin is ever before me.
3 For I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me.
4 Against you, you only, have I done wrong, working that which is evil in your eyes; so that your words may be seen to be right, and you may be clear when you are judging.
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 Truly, I was formed in evil, and in sin did my mother give me birth.
5 Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.
6 Your desire is for what is true in the inner parts: in the secrets of my soul you will give me knowledge of wisdom.
6 Yet you desired faithfulness even in the womb; you taught me wisdom in that secret place.
7 Make me free from sin with hyssop: let me be washed whiter than snow.
7 Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
8 Make me full of joy and rapture; so that the bones which have been broken may be glad.
8 Let me hear joy and gladness; let the bones you have crushed rejoice.
9 Let your face be turned from my wrongdoing, and take away all my sins.
9 Hide your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquity.
10 Make a clean heart in me, O God; give me a right spirit again.
10 Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
