Psalm 51:3-6
New International Version
3 For I know my transgressions,
and my sin is always before me.(A)
4 Against you, you only, have I sinned(B)
and done what is evil in your sight;(C)
so you are right in your verdict
and justified when you judge.(D)
5 Surely I was sinful(E) at birth,(F)
sinful from the time my mother conceived me.
6 Yet you desired faithfulness even in the womb;
you taught me wisdom(G) in that secret place.(H)

Psalm 51:3-6
King James Version
3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
