Psa 51:1

Psa 51:1To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David, in the coming inn unto him of Nathan the prophet, when he hath gone in unto Bath-Sheba. Favour me, O God, according to Thy kindness, According to the abundance of Thy mercies, Blot out my transgressions.

Psa 51:5

Psa 51:5Lo, in iniquity I have been brought forth, And in sin doth my mother conceive me.

Psa 51:16For Thou desirest not sacrifice, or I give it, Burnt-offering Thou acceptest not.
