Psalms 51:1-10

NCV

NIV

1 God, be merciful to me because you are loving. Because you are always ready to be merciful, wipe out all my wrongs.
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 guilt and make me clean again.
2 Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.
3 I know about my wrongs, and I can't forget my sin.
3 For I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me.
4 You are the only one I have sinned against; I have done what you say is wrong. You are right when you speak and fair when you judge.
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 I was brought into this world in sin. In sin my mother gave birth to me.
5 Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.
6 You want me to be completely truthful, so teach me wisdom.
6 Yet you desired faithfulness even in the womb; you taught me wisdom in that secret place.
7 Take away my sin, and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be 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 hear sounds of joy and gladness; let the bones you crushed be happy again.
8 Let me hear joy and gladness; let the bones you have crushed rejoice.
9 Turn your face from my sins and wipe out all my guilt.
9 Hide your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquity.
10 Create in me a pure heart, God, and make my spirit right again.
10 Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
