2 Scrub away my guilt. Wash me clean from my sin.
3 I know I have done wrong. I remember that sin all the time.
4 I did what you said is wrong. You are the one I have sinned against. I say this so that people will know that I am wrong and you are right. What you decided is fair.
5 I was born to do wrong, a sinner before I left my mother’s womb.
6 You want me to be completely loyal, so put true wisdom deep inside of me.
7 Remove my sin and make me pure. Wash me until I am whiter than snow!
8 Let me hear sounds of joy and happiness again. Let the bones you crushed be happy again.
