Psalms 51 — Context

Cleanse me with hyssop and I will be pure; wash me and I will be whiter than snow.

Grant me the ultimate joy of being forgiven! May the bones you crushed rejoice!

Hide your face from my sins! Wipe away all my guilt!

Create for me a pure heart, O God! Renew a resolute spirit within me!

Do not reject me! Do not take your holy Spirit away from me!

Let me again experience the joy of your deliverance! Sustain me by giving me the desire to obey!

Then I will teach rebels your merciful ways, and sinners will turn to you.
