- Have mercy on me, O God,
because of your unfailing love.
Because of your great compassion,
blot out the stain of my sins.
Wash me clean from my guilt.
Purify me from my sin. - Create in me a clean heart, O God.
Renew a loyal spirit within me. - The sacrifice you desire is a broken spirit.
You will not reject a broken and repentant heart, O God.
