  51:1 ¶
[[For the end, a Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came to him, when he had gone to Beersheba{gr.Bersabee}.]] Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy great mercy; and according to the multitude of thy compassions blot out my transgression. |

51:1 ¶
[[To the chief Musician,ºº
A Psalmº
of David,º
when Nathanº
the prophetº
cameºº
untoº
him, afterº
he had gone inºº
toº
Bathsheba.]]º
Have mercyºº
upon me, O Elohim,º
according to thy lovingkindness:º
according unto the multitudeº
of thy tender merciesº
blot outºº
my transgressions.º |
|
51:2
Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. |
|
51:2
Washºº
me throughlyºº
from mine iniquity,ºº
and cleanseºº
me from my sin.ºº |
|
51:3
For I am conscious of mine iniquity; and my sin is continually before me. |
|
51:3
Forº
Iº
acknowledgeºº
my transgressions:º
and my sinº
[is] everº
beforeº
me. |
|
51:4
Against thee only have I sinned, and done evil before thee: that thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged. |
|
51:4
Against thee, thee only,º
have I sinned,ºº
and doneºº
[this] evilº
in thy sight:º
thatº
thou mightest be justifiedºº
when thou speakest,ºº
[and] be clearºº
when thou judgest.ºº |
|
51:5
For, behold, I was conceived in iniquities, and in sins did my mother conceive me. |
|
51:5
Behold,º
I was shapenºº
in iniquity;º
and in sinº
did my motherº
conceiveºº
me. |
|
51:6
For, behold, thou lovest truth: thou hast manifested to me the secret and hidden things of thy wisdom. |
|
51:6
Behold,º
thou desirestºº
truthº
in the inward parts:º
and in the hiddenºº
[part] thou shalt make me to knowºº
wisdom.º |
|
51:7
Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be purified: thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow. |
|
51:7
Purgeºº
me with hyssop,º
and I shall be clean:ºº
washºº
me, and I shall be whiterºº
than snow.ºº |
|
51:8
Thou shalt cause me to hear gladness and joy: the afflicted bones shall rejoice. |
|
51:8
Make me to hearºº
joyº
and gladness;º
[that] the bonesº
[which] thou hast brokenºº
may rejoice.ºº |
|
51:9
Turn away thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. |
|
51:9
Hideºº
thy faceº
from my sins,ºº
and blot outºº
allº
mine iniquities.º |
|
51:10
Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit in my inward parts. |
|
51:10
Createºº
in me a cleanº
heart,º
O Elohim;º
and renewºº
a rightºº
spiritº
withinº
me. |
|
51:11
Cast me not away from thy presence; and remove not thy holy Spirit from me. |
|
51:11
Castº
me notº
awayºº
from thy presence;ºº
and takeºº
notº
thy holyº
spiritº
fromº
me. |
|
51:12
Restore to me the joy of thy salvation: establish me with thy directing Spirit. |
|
51:12
Restoreºº
unto me the joyº
of thy salvation;º
and upholdºº
me [with thy] freeºº
spirit.º |
|
51:13
[Then] will I teach transgressors thy ways; and ungodly men shall turn to thee. |
|
51:13
[Then] will I teachºº
transgressorsºº
thy ways;º
and sinnersº
shall be convertedºº
untoº
thee. |
|
51:14
Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, O God, the God of my salvation: [and] my tongue shall joyfully declare thy righteousness. |
|
51:14
Deliverºº
me from bloodguiltiness,ºº
O Elohim,º
thou Elohimº
of my salvation:º
[and] my tongueº
shall sing aloudºº
of thy righteousness.º |
|
51:15
O Lord, thou shalt open my lips; and my mouth shall declare thy praise. |
|
51:15
O Yahweh,º
openºº
thou my lips;º
and my mouthº
shall shew forthºº
thy praise.º |
|
51:16
For if thou desiredst sacrifice, I would have given [it]: thou wilt not take pleasure in whole-burnt-offerings. |
|
51:16
Forº
thou desirestºº
notº
sacrifice;º
else would I giveºº
[it]: thou delightestºº
notº
in burnt offering.º |
|
51:17
Sacrifice to God is a broken spirit: a broken and humbled heart God will not despise. |
|
51:17
The sacrificesº
of Elohimº
[are] a brokenºº
spirit:º
a brokenºº
and a contriteºº
heart,º
O Elohim,º
thou wilt notº
despise.ºº |
|
51:18
Do good, O Lord, to Zion{gr.Sion} in thy good pleasure; and let the walls of Jerusalem be built. |
|
51:18
Do goodºº
in thy good pleasureº
untoº
Zion:º
buildºº
thou the wallsº
of Jerusalem.º |
|
51:19
Then shalt thou be pleased with a sacrifice of righteousness, offering, and whole-burnt-sacrifices: then shall they offer calves upon thine altar. |
|
51:19
Thenº
shalt thou be pleasedºº
with the sacrificesº
of righteousness,º
with burnt offeringº
and wholeº
burnt offering:ºº
thenº
shall they offerºº
bullocksº
uponº
thine altar.º |
