4 I have sinned against you, especially you. I have done what you consider evil in your sight. So you hand down justice when you speak, and you are blameless when you judge.

5 Indeed, I was born in perversity mischiefevil. I was a sinner when my mother conceived me.

6 Yet, you desire truth from the secret person within me. Deep down inside me teach me wisdom.

7 Purify me from sin with hyssop, and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.

8 Make me hear sounds of joy and gladness. Let the bones that you have broken rejoice.

9 Hide your face turn away from my sins, and wipe out erase all that I have done wrong.
