Psalms 51:1-10

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 For the leader. A psalm of David, when Natan the prophet came to him after his affair with Bat-Sheva: God, in your grace, have mercy on me; in your great compassion, blot out my crimes.

2 Wash me completely from my guilt, and cleanse me from my sin.

3 For I know my crimes, my sin confronts me all the time.

4 Against you, you only, have I sinned and done what is evil from your perspective; so that you are right in accusing me and justified in passing sentence.

5 True, I was born guilty, was a sinner from the moment my mother conceived me.

6 Still, you want truth in the inner person; so make me know wisdom in my inmost heart.

7 Sprinkle me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.

8 Let me hear the sound of joy and gladness, so that the bones you crushed can rejoice.

9 Turn away your face from my sins, and blot out all my crimes.

10 Create in me a clean heart, God; renew in me a resolute spirit.

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.
