Psalms 51:18 in context
Psalms 51:15–19
15
Lord, open my lips.
My mouth will declare your praise.
16
For you don’t delight in sacrifice, or else I would give it.
You have no pleasure in burnt offering.
17
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit.
O God, you will not despise a broken and contrite heart.
19
Then you will delight in the sacrifices of righteousness,
in burnt offerings and in whole burnt offerings.
Then they will offer bulls on your altar.
