¹⁰ But I am as a fruitful olive in the house of God: I have trusted in the mercy of God for ever, even for evermore.

(God, the God of my salvation or the God of my deliverance, save thou me from bloodshed, or from death; and my tongue shall joyfully sing of thy righteousness, or of thy justice.)

¹⁵ Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall tell (out) thy praising.

¹⁶ For if thou haddest would sacrifice, I had given it; truly thou shalt not delight in burnt sacrifice. (For if thou haddest desired a sacrifice, that is, an offering, I would have given it to thee; but truly thou delightest not in burnt sacrifice.)

¹⁷ A sacrifice to God is a spirit troubled, that is, (one made) sorry for sin; God, thou shalt not despise a contrite heart, and made meek. (A sacrifice to God is a troubled spirit, that is, one made sorry because of sinning; God, thou shalt not despise a contrite and humble heart.)

⁷ Thou cleansest me with hyssop and I am clean, Washest me, and than snow I am whiter.

⁸ Thou causest me to hear joy and gladness, Thou makest joyful bones Thou hast bruised.

⁹ Hide Thy face from my sin. And all mine iniquities blot out.

¹⁰ A clean heart prepare for me, O God, And a right spirit renew within me.

¹¹ Cast me not forth from Thy presence, And Thy Holy Spirit take not from me.

¹² Restore to me the joy of Thy salvation, And a willing spirit doth sustain me.

¹³ I teach transgressors Thy ways, And sinners unto Thee do return.

¹⁴ Deliver me from blood, O God, God of my salvation, My tongue singeth of Thy righteousness.

¹⁵ O Lord, my lips thou dost open, And my mouth declareth Thy praise.

¹⁶ For Thou desirest not sacrifice, or I give it, Burnt-offering Thou acceptest not.

¹⁷ The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, A heart broken and bruised, O God, Thou dost not despise.
