Psalm 51:12-13, 14-15, 16-17
Chapter 51
12
Create in me, O God, a pure heart; give me a new and steadfast spirit.
13
Do not cast me out of your presence nor take your holy spirit from me.
14
Give me again, the joy of your salvation; and sustain me, with a willing spirit.
15
Then I will show wrongdoers your ways and sinners will return to you.
16
Deliver me, O God, from the guilt of blood; and of your justice, I shall sing aloud.
17
O Lord, open my lips, and I will declare your praise.
