Psalms 51:7-14

⁷Purify me with hyssop so I can be clean; wash me so I can be whiter than snow.

⁸Please let me hear joy and happiness again; let the bones you have crushed be glad once more.

⁹Turn your face away from looking at my sins; please wipe away my guilt.

¹⁰Create a pure mind in me, God, and make me trustworthy again.

¹¹Don't expel me from your presence; don't take away your Holy Spirit from me.

¹²Give me back the happiness of your salvation; help me to have a willing nature.

¹³Then I will teach your ways to rebellious people, and these sinners will come back to you.

¹⁴God, please forgive me for the blood I have shed, God of my salvation, and I will sing for joy of your goodness.
