Psalms 51:2-13

²Moreover wash thou me from my wickedness; and cleanse thou me from my sin.

³For I acknowledge my wickedness; and my sin is evermore against me. (For I confess my sinfulness; yea, my sin is before me forevermore.)

⁴I 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.)

⁵For 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.)

⁶For 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.)

⁷Lord, 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).

⁸Give 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.)

⁹Turn away thy face from my sins; and do away all my wickednesses.

¹⁰God, 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.)

¹¹Cast 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.)

¹²Give 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.)

¹³I 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.)
