Psalms 51:3-7

³(51:5) For of my transgressions I have full knowledge; and my sin is before me continually.

⁴(51:6) To thee, thee only, have I sinned, and what is evil in thy eyes have I done:—in order that thou mightest be righteous when thou speakest, be justified when thou judgest.

⁵(51:7) Behold, in iniquity was I brought forth; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

⁶(51:8) Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: therefore do thou cause me to know wisdom in the recesses of the heart.

⁷(51:9) Cleanse me from sin with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
