Psalm 51:5-9

New American Standard Bible

⁵ Behold, I was ^(A)brought forth in guilt,
And in sin my mother conceived me.
⁶ Behold, You desire ^(B)truth in the ^[a]innermost being,
And in secret You will ^(C)make wisdom known to me.
^7 [b]Purify me ^(D)with hyssop, and I will be clean;
^[c]Cleanse me, and I will be ^(E)whiter than snow.
^8 [d]Let me hear ^(F)joy and gladness,
Let the ^(G)bones You have broken rejoice.
^9 (H)Hide Your face from my sins
And wipe out all my guilty deeds.
