1 God, be merciful to mebecause you are loving.Because you are always ready to be merciful,wipe out all my wrongs.
2 Wash away all my guiltand make me clean again.
3 I know about my wrongs,and I can’t forget my sin.
4 You are the only one I have sinned against;I have done what you say is wrong.You are right when you speakand fair when you judge.
5 I was brought into this world in sin.In sin my mother gave birth to me.
6 You want me to be completely truthful,so teach me wisdom.
