For I knowledge my faultes: & my sin is euer before me.
Aganst thee onely haue I sinned, and done this euil in thy sight: that thou mightest be iustified in thy saying, and cleare when thou art iudged.
Behdold, I mas shapen in wickednesse: & in sinne hath my mother couceiued me.
But loc, thou requirest trueth in the inward partes: and shall make me to vndestand wisedome secretly.
Thou shalt purge me with Hysope, and I shall be cleane: thou shall wash me, and I shalbe whiter then snowe.
Thou shalt make me heare of ioy and gladnesse: that the bones which thou hast broken may reioyce.
Turne thy face from my sinnes: and put out all my misdeedes.
Make mee a cleane heart, O God: and renew a rght spi∣rit within me.
Cast me not away from thy presence: and take not thy holy spirit from me.
O giue me the comfort of the helpe againe: and stablish me with thy free spirit.
Then shall I teach thy wayes vnto the wicked: and sin∣ners shalbe conuerted vnto thee.
Deliuer me from bloodgiltinesse, O God, thou that art the God of my health: & my tongue shal sing of thy righteousnes.
Thou shall open my lips (O Lord:) and my month shall shew thy prayse.
For thou desirest no sacrifice, els would I giue it thee: but thou delightest not in burnt offerings.
The sacrfice of God is a troubled spirit: a broken and con∣trite heart (O God) shall thou not despise.
O be fauourable and gracious vnto Sion: build thou the Walles of Hierusalem.
Then shall thou be pleased with the sacrifice of righteous∣nesse, with the burnt offerings and oblations: then shall they offer yong bullocks vpon thine altar.
