Psalms 51:5
Compare all
3 For I acknowledge my transgressions,
And my sin is always before me.
4 aAgainst You, You only, have I sinned,
And done this evil bin Your sight—
cThat You may be found just1 when You speak,
And blameless when You judge. 
5 aBehold, I was brought forth in iniquity,
And in sin my mother conceived me. 
6 Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts,
And in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom.
7 aPurge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean;
Wash me, and I shall be bwhiter than snow. 
8 Make me hear joy and gladness,
That the bones You have broken amay rejoice.
