¹⁵ Open my lips, Lord,^(A)
    and my mouth will declare your praise.
¹⁶ You do not delight in sacrifice,^(B) or I would bring it;
    you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings.
¹⁷ My sacrifice,^(C) O God, is^[a] a broken spirit;
    a broken and contrite heart^(D)
    you, God, will not despise.

¹¹ But let all who take refuge in you be glad;
    let them ever sing for joy.^(A)
Spread your protection over them,
    that those who love your name^(B) may rejoice in you.^(C)

¹² Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous;^(D)
    you surround them^(E) with your favor as with a shield.^(F)
