12. Create a clean heart in me, O God: and renew a right spirit within my bowels.
13. Cast me not away from thy face; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
14. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, and strengthen me with a perfect spirit.
15. I will teach the unjust thy ways: and the wicked shall be converted to thee.
16. Deliver me from blood, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall extol thy justice.
17. O Lord, thou wilt open my lips: and my mouth shall declare thy praise.
18. For if thou hadst desired sacrifice, I would indeed have given it: with burnt offerings thou wilt not be delighted.
