Create in me a clean heart, O God

(2 Samuel 12:1-12)
1
Unto the end, a psalm of David,
2
When Nathan the prophet came to him after he had sinned with Bethsabee.
3
Have mercy on me, O God, according to thy great mercy. And according to the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my iniquity.
4
Wash me yet more from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
5
For I know my iniquity, and my sin is always before me.
6
To thee only have I sinned, and have done evil before thee: that thou mayst be justified in thy words and mayst overcome when thou art judged.
7
For behold I was conceived in iniquities; and in sins did my mother conceive me.
8
For behold thou hast loved truth: the uncertain and hidden things of thy wisdom thou hast made manifest to me.
9
Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be cleansed: thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow.
10
To my hearing thou shalt give joy and gladness: and the bones that have been humbled shall rejoice.
11
Turn away thy face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities.
12
Create a clean heart in me, O God: and renew a right spirit within my bowels.
13
Cast me not away from thy face; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
14
Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, and strengthen me with a perfect spirit.
15
I will teach the unjust thy ways: and the wicked shall be converted to thee.
16
Deliver me from blood, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall extol thy justice.
17
O Lord, thou wilt open my lips: and my mouth shall declare thy praise.
18
For if thou hadst desired sacrifice, I would indeed have given it: with burnt offerings thou wilt not be delighted.
19
A sacrifice to God is an afflicted spirit: a contrite and humbled heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
20
Deal favourably, O Lord, in thy good will with Sion; that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.
21
Then shalt thou accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations and whole burnt offerings: then shall they lay calves upon thy altar.

Create in me a clean heart, O God

(2 Samuel 12:1-12)
1
Have mercy on me, God, according to your loving kindness. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.
2
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity. Cleanse me from my sin.
3
For I know my transgressions. My sin is constantly before me.
4
Against 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.
5
Behold, I was born in iniquity. My mother conceived me in sin.
6
Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts. You teach me wisdom in the inmost place.
7
Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
8
Let me hear joy and gladness, that the bones which you have broken may rejoice.
9
Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all of my iniquities.
10
Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a right spirit within me.
11
Don’t throw me from your presence, and don’t take your Holy Spirit from me.
12
Restore to me the joy of your salvation. Uphold me with a willing spirit.
13
Then I will teach transgressors your ways. Sinners will be converted to you.
14
Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, the God of my salvation. My tongue will sing aloud of your righteousness.
15
Lord, open my lips. My mouth will declare your praise.
16
For you don’t delight in sacrifice, or else I would give it. You have no pleasure in burnt offering.
17
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit. O God, you will not despise a broken and contrite heart.
18
Do well in your good pleasure to Zion. Build the walls of Jerusalem.
19
Then you will delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, in burnt offerings and in whole burnt offerings. Then they will offer bulls on your altar.
