1. Be merciful to me, O God,because of your constant love.Because of your great mercywipe away my sins!
2. Wash away all my eviland make me clean from my sin!
3. I recognize my faults;I am always conscious of my sins.
4. I have sinned against you — only against you —and done what you consider evil.So you are right in judging me;you are justified in condemning me.
5. I have been evil from the day I was born;from the time I was conceived, I have been sinful.
6. Sincerity and truth are what you require;fill my mind with your wisdom.
