New King James Version
2 (A)Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,
And cleanse me from my sin.
3 For I acknowledge my transgressions,
And my sin is always before me.
4 (B)Against You, You only, have I sinned,
And done this evil (C)in Your sight—
(D)That You may be found just [a]when You speak,
And blameless when You judge.
5 (E)Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity,
And in sin my mother conceived me.
6 Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts,
And in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom.
7 (F)Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean;
Wash me, and I shall be (G)whiter than snow.
8 Make me hear joy and gladness,
That the bones You have broken (H)may rejoice.
9 Hide Your face from my sins,
And blot out all my iniquities.
10 (I)Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me.
