- 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.
No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.Next verse!With image
