To the chief MusicianH5329, A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732, when NathanH5416 the prophetH5030 cameH935 unto him, after he had gone inH935 to BathshebaH1339. Have mercyH2603 upon me, O GodH430, according to thy lovingkindnessH2617: according unto the multitudeH7230 of thy tender merciesH7356 blot outH4229 my transgressionsH6588.
WashH3526 me throughlyH7235 from mine iniquityH5771, and cleanseH2891 me from my sinH2403.
For I acknowledgeH3045 my transgressionsH6588: and my sinH2403 is everH8548 before me.
Against thee, thee only, have I sinnedH2398, and doneH6213 this evilH7451 in thy sightH5869: that thou mightest be justifiedH6663 when thou speakestH1696, and be clearH2135 when thou judgestH8199.
Behold, I was shapenH2342 in iniquityH5771; and in sinH2399 did my motherH517 conceiveH3179 me. {conceive…: Heb. warm me}
Behold, thou desirestH2654 truthH571 in the inward partsH2910: and in the hiddenH5640 part thou shalt make me to knowH3045 wisdomH2451.
PurgeH2398 me with hyssopH231, and I shall be cleanH2891: washH3526 me, and I shall be whiterH3835 than snowH7950.
Make me to hearH8085 joyH8342 and gladnessH8057; that the bonesH6106 which thou hast brokenH1794 may rejoiceH1523.
HideH5641 thy faceH6440 from my sinsH2399, and blot outH4229 all mine iniquitiesH5771.
CreateH1254 in me a cleanH2889 heartH3820, O GodH430; and renewH2318 a rightH3559 spiritH7307 withinH7130 me. {right: or, constant}
Cast me not awayH7993 from thy presenceH6440; and takeH3947 not thy holyH6944 spiritH7307 from me.
RestoreH7725 unto me the joyH8342 of thy salvationH3468; and upholdH5564 me with thy freeH5081 spiritH7307.
Then will I teachH3925 transgressorsH6586 thy waysH1870; and sinnersH2400 shall be convertedH7725 unto thee.
DeliverH5337 me from bloodguiltinessH1818, O GodH430, thou GodH430 of my salvationH8668: and my tongueH3956 shall sing aloudH7442 of thy righteousnessH6666. {bloodguiltiness: Heb. bloods}
O LordH136, openH6605 thou my lipsH8193; and my mouthH6310 shall shew forthH5046 thy praiseH8416.
For thou desirestH2654 not sacrificeH2077; else would I giveH5414 it: thou delightestH7521 not in burnt offeringH5930. {else…: or, that I should}
The sacrificesH2077 of GodH430 are a brokenH7665 spiritH7307: a brokenH7665 and a contriteH1794 heartH3820, O GodH430, thou wilt not despiseH959.
Do goodH3190 in thy good pleasureH7522 unto ZionH6726: buildH1129 thou the wallsH2346 of JerusalemH3389.
Then shalt thou be pleasedH2654 with the sacrificesH2077 of righteousnessH6664, with burnt offeringH5930 and wholeH3632 burnt offeringH5930: then shall they offerH5927 bullocksH6499 upon thine altarH4196.

SacrificeH2077 and offeringH4503 thou didst not desireH2654; mine earsH241 hast thou openedH3738: burnt offeringH5930 and sin offeringH2401 hast thou not requiredH7592. {opened: Heb. digged}
