Psalm 51 "Sorrowful Heart"
King David wrote Psalm 51 after the prophet Nathan visited David, confronting him about his adultery with Bathsheba and the killing of her husband Uriah. Let that sink in while reading this beautiful Psalm. If the Lord could forgive King David for his sins, then He can also forgive you if you repent with humility and a sorrowful heart.
(For the music leader. A psalm by David when the prophet Nathan came to him after David had been with Bathsheba.)
You are kind, God!
Please have pity on me.
You are always merciful!
Please wipe away my sins.
Wash me clean from all
of my sin and guilt.
I know about my sins,
and I cannot forget
my terrible guilt.
You are really the one
I have sinned against;
I have disobeyed you
and have done wrong.
So it is right and fair for you
to correct and punish me.
I have sinned and done wrong
since the day I was born.
But you want complete honesty,
so teach me true wisdom.
Wash me with hyssop
until I am clean
and whiter than snow.
Let me be happy and joyful!
You crushed my bones,
now let them celebrate.
Turn your eyes from my sin
and cover my guilt.
Create pure thoughts in me
and make me faithful again.
Don't chase me away from you
or take your Holy Spirit
away from me.
Make me as happy as you did
when you saved me;
make me want to obey!
I will teach sinners your Law,
and they will return to you.
Keep me from any deadly sin.
Only you can save me!
Then I will shout and sing
about your power to save.
Help me to speak,
and I will praise you, Lord.
Offerings and sacrifices
are not what you want.
The way to please you
is to feel sorrow
deep in our hearts.
This is the kind of sacrifice
you won't refuse.
Please be willing, Lord,
to help the city of Zion
and to rebuild its walls.
Then you will be pleased
with the proper sacrifices,
and we will offer bulls
on your altar once again.
