- 0:02Speaker 1: Psalm fifty one for the Chief Musician, a psalm by
- 0:06Speaker 1: David when Nathan the prophet came to him after he
- 0:10Speaker 1: had gone in to Bathsheba. Have mercy on me, God,
- 0:13Speaker 1: according to your loving kindness, according to the multitude of
- 0:17Speaker 1: your tender mercies. Blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly
- 0:21Speaker 1: from my iniquity. Cleanse me from my sin, for I
- 0:25Speaker 1: know my transgressions. My sin is constantly before me against you.
- 0:30Speaker 1: And you only have I sinned and done that which
- 0:32Speaker 1: is evil in your sight, that you may be proved
- 0:35Speaker 1: right when you speak, and justified when you judge. Behold,
- 0:39Speaker 1: I was brought forth an iniquity in sin. My mother
- 0:42Speaker 1: conceived me. Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts.
- 0:46Speaker 1: You teach me wisdom in the inmost place. Purify me
- 0:50Speaker 1: with hissop and I will be clean. Wash me and
- 0:53Speaker 1: I will be whiter than snow. Let me hear joy
- 0:57Speaker 1: and gladness that the bones which you have broken and
- 1:00Speaker 1: may rejoice. Hide your face from my sins and blot
- 1:04Speaker 1: out all of my iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O, God,
- 1:08Speaker 1: renew a right spirit within me. Don't throw me from
- 1:12Speaker 1: your presence and don't take your holy spirit from me.
- 1:16Speaker 1: Restore to me the joy of your salvation. Uphold me
- 1:19Speaker 1: with a willing spirit. Then I will teach transgressors your ways.
- 1:24Speaker 1: Sinners shall be converted to you. Deliver me from blood guiltiness,
- 1:28Speaker 1: O God, the God of my salvation. My tongue shall
- 1:31Speaker 1: sing aloud of your righteousness. Lord, open my lips. My
- 1:35Speaker 1: mouth shall declare your praise for you. Don't delight in sacrifice,
- 1:40Speaker 1: or else I would give it. You have no pleasure
- 1:42Speaker 1: in burnt offering. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit,
- 1:47Speaker 1: a broken and contrite heart. O God, you will not despise.
- 1:51Speaker 1: Do well in your good pleasure to Zion, build the
- 1:54Speaker 1: walls of Jerusalem. Then you will delight in the sacrifices
- 1:58Speaker 1: of righteousness and burnt offerings, and the hole burnt offerings.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Then they will offer bulls on your altar.
