Psalm 51 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Psa 51:1For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David, when Natan the prophet came to him, after he had gone in to Bat-Sheva. Have mercy on me, God, according to your lovingkindness. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.
Psa 51:2Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity. Cleanse me from my sin.
Psa 51:3For I know my transgressions. My sin is constantly before me.
Psa 51:4Against you, and you only, have I sinned, And done that which is evil in your sight; That you may be proved right when you speak, And justified when you judge.
Psa 51:5Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity. In sin my mother conceived me.
Psa 51:6Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts. You teach me wisdom in the inmost place.
Psa 51:7Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
Psa 51:8Let me hear joy and gladness, That the bones which you have broken may rejoice.
Psa 51:9Hide your face from my sins, And blot out all of my iniquities.
Psa 51:10Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a right spirit within me.
Psa 51:11Don't throw me from your presence, And don't take your holy Spirit from me.
Psa 51:12Restore to me the joy of your salvation. Uphold me with a willing spirit.
Psa 51:13Then I will teach transgressors your ways. Sinners shall be converted to you.
Psa 51:14Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, the God of my salvation. My tongue shall sing aloud of your righteousness.
Psa 51:15Lord, open my lips. My mouth shall declare your praise.
Psa 51:16For you don't delight in sacrifice, or else I would give it. You have no pleasure in burnt offering.
Psa 51:17The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit. A broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.
Psa 51:18Do well in your good pleasure to Tziyon. Build the walls of Yerushalayim.
Psa 51:19Then you will delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, In burnt offerings and in whole burnt offerings. Then they will offer bulls on your altar.
