Psalms 51:10 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 51:10

8 Make me hear joy and gladness,
That the bones You have broken ^amay rejoice.

9 Hide Your face from my sins,
And blot out all my iniquities.

10 ^aCreate in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me.

11 Do not cast me away from Your presence,
And do not take Your ^aHoly Spirit from me.

12 Restore to me the joy of Your salvation,
And uphold me by Your ^agenerous Spirit.

13 Then I will teach transgressors Your ways,
And sinners shall be converted to You.

14 Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God,
The God of my salvation,
And my tongue shall sing aloud of Your righteousness.

15 O Lord, open my lips,
And my mouth shall show forth Your praise.

16 For ^aYou do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it;
You do not delight in burnt offering.

17 ^aThe sacrifices of God are a broken spirit,
A broken and a contrite heart—
These, O God, You will not despise.
