A Prayer of Repentance
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David when Nathan the prophet went to him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba.
According to Your lovingkindness;
According to the multitude of Your tender mercies,
aBlot out my transgressions.
And done this evil bin Your sight—
cThat You may be found just1 when You speak,
And blameless when You judge.
And in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom.
