Psalm 51:15-18 American Standard Version (ASV)

15. O Lord, open thou my lips; And my mouth shall show forth thy praise.

16. For thou delightest not in sacrifice; else would I give it: Thou hast no pleasure in burnt-offering.

17. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: A broken and contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

18. Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: Build thou the walls of Jerusalem.
