9 Close your eyes to my sinsand wipe out all my evil.
10 Create a pure heart in me, O God,and put a new and loyal spirit in me.
11 Do not banish me from your presence;do not take your Holy Spirit away from me.
12 Give me again the joy that comes from your salvation,and make me willing to obey you.
13 Then I will teach sinners your commands,and they will turn back to you.
14 Spare my life, O God, and save me,and I will gladly proclaim your righteousness.
15 Help me to speak, Lord,and I will praise you.
