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.
7 Take away my sin, and I will be clean.Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
8 Make me hear sounds of joy and gladness;let the bones you crushed be happy again.
9 Turn your face from my sinsand wipe out all my guilt.
