Psalms 51:8 in context

Psalms 51:5–11

Behold, I was born in iniquity.

My mother conceived me in sin.

Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts.

You teach me wisdom in the inmost place.

Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean.

Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.

Selected verse

Let me hear joy and gladness,

that the bones which you have broken may rejoice.

Hide your face from my sins,

and blot out all of my iniquities.

Create in me a clean heart, O God.

Renew a right spirit within me.

Don’t throw me from your presence,

and don’t take your Holy Spirit from me.
