8Make me hear joy and gladness so that the bones that you have broken may rejoice.
9Hide your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquities.
10Create in me a clean heart, God, and renew a right spirit within me.
11Do not drive me away from your presence, and do not take your holy Spirit from me.
12Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and sustain me with a willing spirit.
13Then will I teach transgressors your ways, and sinners will be converted to you.
14Forgive me for shedding blood, God of my salvation, and I will shout for the joy of your righteousness.
15Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will express your praise.
16For you do not delight in sacrifice, or I would give it; you have no pleasure in burnt offerings.
