- 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.
You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.Next verse!With image
