    the guilt of my sin.^(D)

⁴ I said, “Have mercy^(A) on me, Lord;
    heal^(B) me, for I have sinned^(C) against you.”

³ For I know my transgressions,
    and my sin is always before me.^(C)
4 Against you, you only, have I sinned^(D)
    and done what is evil in your sight;^(E)
so you are right in your verdict
    and justified when you judge.^(F)

    sinful from the time my mother conceived me.

13 rebellion^(D) and treachery against the Lord,
    turning our backs^(E) on our God,
inciting revolt and oppression,^(F)
    uttering lies^(G) our hearts have conceived.

    we have sinned^(D) against you.
