Compare all
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.

Psalms 51:12

The joy - The comfortable sense of thy saving grace, promised and vouchsafed to me, both for my present and everlasting salvation. Free - Or, ingenuous, or liberal, or princely. Which he seems to oppose to his own base and illiberal and disingenuous and servile spirit, which he had discovered in his wicked practices: a spirit, which may free me from the bondage of sin, and enable me chearfully to run the way of God's precepts.
