¹⁰Create in me a clean heart, O God;

And renew a right spirit within me.

¹¹Cast me not away from thy presence;

And take not thy holy spirit from me.

¹²Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation;

And uphold me with thy free spirit.

¹³Then will I teach transgressors thy ways;

And sinners shall be converted unto thee.

¹⁴Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation:

And my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.

¹⁵O Lord, open thou my lips;

And my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.

¹⁶For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it:

Thou delightest not in burnt offering.

¹⁷The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit:

A broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
