Psalms 51:12-17 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

12. Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and with a willing spirit sustain me.

13. Then I will teach transgressors your ways, and sinners will turn back to you.

14. Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, the God of my salvation; then my tongue will sing aloud of your righteousness.

15. O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will proclaim your praise.

16. For you do not delight in sacrifice or I would give it. With a burnt offering you are not pleased.

17. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; A broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.
