Psalm 51:3-5

New International Reader's Version

³ I know the lawless acts I’ve committed.
    I can’t forget my sin.
⁴ You are the one I’ve really sinned against.
    I’ve done what is evil in your sight.
So you are right when you sentence me.
    You are fair when you judge me.
⁵ I know I’ve been a sinner ever since I was born.
    I’ve been a sinner ever since my mother became pregnant with me.
