1. O God, favor me because of Your loving-kindness. Take away my wrong-doing because of the greatness of Your loving-pity.
|
1. To the chief Musician H5329 , A Psalm H4210 of David H1732 , when Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030 came H935 unto H413 him, after H834 he had gone in H935 to H413 Bathsheba H1339 . Have mercy H2603 upon me , O God H430 , according to thy lovingkindness H2617 : according unto the multitude H7230 of thy tender mercies H7356 blot out H4229 my transgressions H6588 .
|
|
2. Wash me inside and out from my wrong-doing and make me clean from my sin.
|
2. Wash H3526 me throughly H7235 from mine iniquity H4480 H5771 , and cleanse H2891 me from my sin H4480 H2403 .
|
|
3. For I know my wrong-doing, and my sin is always in front of me.
|
3. For H3588 I H589 acknowledge H3045 my transgressions H6588 : and my sin H2403 is ever H8548 before H5048 me.
|
|
4. I have sinned against You, and You only. I have done what is sinful in Your eyes. You are always right when You speak, and fair when You judge.
|
4. Against thee , thee only H905 , have I sinned H2398 , and done H6213 this evil H7451 in thy sight H5869 : that H4616 thou mightest be justified H6663 when thou speakest H1696 , and be clear H2135 when thou judgest H8199 .
|
|
5. See, I was born in sin and was in sin from my very beginning.
|
5. Behold H2005 , I was shapen H2342 in iniquity H5771 ; and in sin H2399 did my mother H517 conceive H3179 me.
|
|
6. See, You want truth deep within the heart. And You will make me know wisdom in the hidden part.
|
6. Behold H2005 , thou desirest H2654 truth H571 in the inward parts H2910 : and in the hidden H5640 part thou shalt make me to know H3045 wisdom H2451 .
|
|
7. Take away my sin, and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
|
7. Purge H2398 me with hyssop H231 , and I shall be clean H2891 : wash H3526 me , and I shall be whiter H3835 than snow H4480 H7950 .
|
|
8. Make me hear joy and happiness. Let the bones that You have broken be full of joy.
|
8. Make me to hear H8085 joy H8342 and gladness H8057 ; that the bones H6106 which thou hast broken H1794 may rejoice H1523 .
|
|
9. Hide Your face from my sins. And take away all my wrong-doing.
|
9. Hide H5641 thy face H6440 from my sins H4480 H2399 , and blot out H4229 all H3605 mine iniquities H5771 .
|
|
10. Make a clean heart in me, O God. Give me a new spirit that will not be moved.
|
10. Create H1254 in me a clean H2889 heart H3820 , O God H430 ; and renew H2318 a right H3559 spirit H7307 within H7130 me.
|
|
11. Do not throw me away from where You are. And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.
|
11. Cast H7993 me not H408 away from thy presence H4480 H6440 ; and take H3947 not H408 thy holy H6944 spirit H7307 from H4480 me.
|
|
12. Let the joy of Your saving power return to me. And give me a willing spirit to obey you.
|
12. Restore H7725 unto me the joy H8342 of thy salvation H3468 ; and uphold H5564 me with thy free H5082 spirit H7307 .
|
|
13. Then I will teach wrong-doers Your ways. And sinners will turn to You.
|
13. Then will I teach H3925 transgressors H6586 thy ways H1870 ; and sinners H2400 shall be converted H7725 unto H413 thee.
|
|
14. Save me from the guilt of blood, O God. You are the God Who saves me. Then my tongue will sing with joy about how right and good You are.
|
14. Deliver H5337 me from bloodguiltiness H4480 H1818 , O God H430 , thou God H430 of my salvation H8668 : and my tongue H3956 shall sing aloud H7442 of thy righteousness H6666 .
|
|
15. O Lord, open my lips, so my mouth will praise You.
|
15. O Lord H136 , open H6605 thou my lips H8193 ; and my mouth H6310 shall show forth H5046 thy praise H8416 .
|
|
16. For You are not happy with a gift given on the altar in worship, or I would give it. You are not pleased with burnt gifts.
|
16. For H3588 thou desirest H2654 not H3808 sacrifice H2077 ; else would I give H5414 it : thou delightest H7521 not H3808 in burnt offering H5930 .
|
|
17. The gifts on an altar that God wants are a broken spirit. O God, You will not hate a broken heart and a heart with no pride.
|
17. The sacrifices H2077 of God H430 are a broken H7665 spirit H7307 : a broken H7665 and a contrite H1794 heart H3820 , O God H430 , thou wilt not H3808 despise H959 .
|
|
18. Be pleased to do good to Zion. Build the walls of Jerusalem.
|
18. Do good H3190 in thy good pleasure H7522 unto H853 Zion H6726 : build H1129 thou the walls H2346 of Jerusalem H3389 .
|
|
19. Then You will be happy with gifts given on the altar that are right and good, with burnt gifts and whole burnt gifts. Then young bulls will be given on Your altar.
|
19. Then H227 shalt thou be pleased H2654 with the sacrifices H2077 of righteousness H6664 , with burnt offering H5930 and whole burnt offering H3632 : then H227 shall they offer H5927 bullocks H6499 upon H5921 thine altar H4196 .
