New Testament

Psalm 51:7-19 American Standard Version (ASV)

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

8. Make me to hear joy and gladness, That the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.

9. Hide thy face from my sins, And blot out all mine iniquities.

10. Create in me a clean heart, O God; And renew a right spirit within me.

11. Cast me not away from thy presence; And take not thy holy Spirit from me.

12. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; And uphold me with a willing spirit.

13. Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; And sinners shall be converted unto thee.

14. Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation; And my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.

15. O Lord, open thou my lips; And my mouth shall show forth thy praise.

16. For thou delightest not in sacrifice; else would I give it: Thou hast no pleasure in burnt-offering.

17. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: A broken and contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

18. Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: Build thou the walls of Jerusalem.

19. Then will thou delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, In burnt-offering and in whole burnt-offering: Then will they offer bullocks upon thine altar.
