1
Have mercy on me, God, according to your lovingkindness. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.
2
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity. Cleanse me from my sin.
3
For I know my transgressions. My sin is constantly before me.
4
Against you, and you only, have I sinned, And done that which is evil in your sight; That you may be proved right when you speak, And justified when you judge.
5
Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity. In sin did my mother conceive me.
