Psalm 51

51[For the choir director: A psalm of David, regarding the time Nathan the prophet came to him after David had committed adultery with Bathsheba.] Have mercy on me, O God, because of your unfailing love. Because of your great compassion, blot out the stain of my sins.H5329H4210H1732H5416H5030H935H935H1339H2603H430H2617H7230H7356H4229H65882Wash me clean from my guilt. Purify me from my sin.H3526H7235H5771H2891H24033For I recognize my rebellion; it haunts me day and night.H3045H6588H2403H85484Against you, and you alone, have I sinned; I have done what is evil in your sight. You will be proved right in what you say, and your judgment against me is justc.H2398H6213H7451H5869H6663H1696H2135H81995For I was born a sinner—yes, from the moment my mother conceived me.H2342H5771H2399H517H31796But you desire honesty from the wombc, teaching me wisdom even there.H2654H571H2910H5640H3045H24517Purify me from my sinsc, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.H2398H231H2891H3526H3835H79508Oh, give me back my joy again; you have broken me—now let me rejoice.H8085H8342H8057H6106H1794H15239Don’t keep looking at my sins. Remove the stain of my guilt.H5641H6440H2399H4229H577110Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a loyal spirit within me.H1254H2889H3820H430H2318H3559H7307H713011Do not banish me from your presence, and don’t take your Holy Spiritc from me.H7993H6440H3947H6944H730712Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and make me willing to obey you.H7725H8342H3468H5564H5081H730713Then I will teach your ways to rebels, and they will return to you.H3925H6586H1870H2400H772514Forgive me for shedding blood, O God who saves; then I will joyfully sing of your forgiveness.H5337H1818H430H430H8668H3956H7442H666615Unseal my lips, O Lord, that my mouth may praise you.H136H6605H8193H6310H5046H841616You do not desire a sacrifice, or I would offer one. You do not want a burnt offering.H2654H2077H5414H7521H593017The sacrifice you desire is a broken spirit. You will not reject a broken and repentant heart, O God.H2077H430H7665H7307H7665H1794H3820H430H95918Look with favor on Zion and help her; rebuild the walls of Jerusalem.H3190H7522H6726H1129H2346H338919Then you will be pleased with sacrifices offered in the right spirit—with burnt offerings and whole burnt offerings. Then bulls will again be sacrificed on your altar.H2654H2077H6664H5930H3632H5930H5927H6499H4196

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
