- Have mercy on me, O God,
according to your unfailing love;
according to your great compassion
blot out my transgressions.
Wash away all my iniquity
and cleanse me from my sin. - Create in me a pure heart, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me. - My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart
you, God, will not despise.
Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.
