2 Moreover wash thou me from my wickedness; and cleanse thou me from my sin.
3 For I acknowledge my wickedness; and my sin is evermore against me. (For I confess my sinfulness; yea, my sin is before me forevermore.)
4 I have sinned to thee alone, and I have done evil before thee; that thou be justified in thy words, and overcome when thou art deemed. (I have sinned against thee alone, and I have done evil before thee; so that thou art justified with thy words, and proved right when thou judgest me.)
5 For lo! I was conceived in wickednesses; and my mother conceived me in sins. (For behold! I was conceived in sinfulness; yea, my mother conceived me in sin.)
6 For lo! thou lovedest truth; thou hast showed to me the uncertain things, and privy things of thy wisdom. (For behold! thou lovedest the truth; and thou hast shown me the uncertain things, and the secret things, of thy wisdom.)
7 Lord, sprinkle thou me with hyssop, and I shall be cleansed; wash thou me, and I shall be made white more than snow, (or wash thou me, and I shall be made more white than snow).
8 Give thou joy, and gladness to mine hearing; and bones made meek shall full out make joy. (Let me hear the sounds of joy, and of gladness; and then the bones, which thou hast broken and bruised, shall make great joy, or rejoice.)
9 Turn away thy face from my sins; and do away all my wickednesses.
10 God, make thou a clean heart in me; and make thou new a rightful spirit in my entrails. (God, make my heart clean in me; and put thou a new and right spirit deep within me.)
11 Cast thou me not away from thy face; and take thou not away from me thine holy spirit. (Do not throw thou me away from before thee; and take thou not away thy holy spirit from me or and take thou not away thy Holy Spirit from me.)
12 Give thou to me the gladness of thine health; and confirm thou me with the principal spirit. (Give thou to me the gladness of thy salvation, or of thy deliverance; and give thou to me a spirit willing to obey thee.)
13 I shall teach wicked men thy ways; and unfaithful men shall be converted to thee. (I shall teach the wicked thy ways; and the unfaithful shall return to thee.)
