14 Deliver me from (A)bloodguiltiness, O God,
    O (B)God of my salvation,
    and (C)my tongue will sing aloud of your (D)righteousness.
15 O Lord, open my lips,
    and my mouth will declare your praise.
16 (E)For you will not delight in sacrifice, or I would give it;
    you will not be pleased with a burnt offering.
17 The sacrifices of God are (F)a broken spirit;
    a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.

18 (G)Do good to Zion in your good pleasure;
    (H)build up the walls of Jerusalem;
19 then will you delight in (I)right sacrifices,
    in burnt offerings and (J)whole burnt offerings;
    then bulls will be offered on your altar.
