3. For I myself know my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me.
4. Against you, only you, I have sinned and have done this evil in your eyes, so that you are correct when you speak, you are blameless when you judge.
5. Behold, in iniquity I was born, and in sin my mother conceived me.
6. Behold, you delight in truth in the inward parts, and in the hidden parts you make me to know wisdom.
7. Purify me with hyssop, and I shall be clean. Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
