3. For I am aware of my rebellious acts;I am forever conscious of my sin.
4. Against you – you above all – I have sinned;I have done what is evil in your sight.So you are just when you confront me;you are right when you condemn me.
5. Look, I was guilty of sin from birth,a sinner the moment my mother conceived me.
6. Look, you desire integrity in the inner man;you want me to possess wisdom.
7. Sprinkle me with water and I will be pure;wash me and I will be whiter than snow.
8. Grant me the ultimate joy of being forgiven!May the bones you crushed rejoice!
9. Hide your face from my sins!Wipe away all my guilt!
