Psalms 51:14-17

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

¹⁵Lord, open my lips. My mouth will declare your praise.

¹⁶For you don’t delight in sacrifice, or else I would give it. You have no pleasure in burnt offering.

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