Psalms 51:3-7

³For I know my transgressions. My sin is constantly before me.

⁴Against you, and you only, I have sinned, and done that which is evil in your sight, so you may be proved right when you speak, and justified when you judge.

⁵Behold, I was born in iniquity. My mother conceived me in sin.

⁶Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts. You teach me wisdom in the inmost place.

⁷Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
