Psalm 51:7-9
EasyEnglish Bible

7 Splash water over me with a hyssop plant,
    and I will be really clean.[a]
Wash me and I will be whiter than snow.[b]
8 Please forgive me so that I can be happy.
    Then my whole body will feel well again.
9 Hide your face from my sins.
Clean away all the bad things that I have done.[c]
