Create a clean heart in me, O God: and renew a right spirit within my bowels.
Cast me not away from Thy face: and take not Thy holy spirit from me.
Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation: and strengthen me with a perfect spirit.
I will teach the unjust Thy ways: and the wicked shall be converted unto Thee.
Deliver me from blood, O God, Thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall extol Thy justice.
O Lord, Thou wilt open my lips: and my mouth shall declare Thy praise.
For if Thou hadst desired sacrifice, I would indeed have given it: with burnt offerings Thou wilt not be delighted.
A sacrifice to God is an afflicted spirit: a contrite and humble heart, O God, Thou wilt not despise.
Deal favourably, O Lord, in Thy good will with Sion: that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.
Then shalt Thou accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations, and whole burnt-offerings: then shall they lay calves upon Thine altar.
Glory, &c.
