Psalms 51:8-16 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

8. Make me to hear joy and gladness, Let the bones which You have broken rejoice.

9. Hide Your face from my sins And blot out all my iniquities.

10. Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me.

11. Do not cast me away from Your presence And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.

12. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation And sustain me with a willing spirit.

13. Then I will teach transgressors Your ways, And sinners will be converted to You.

14. Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, the God of my salvation; Then my tongue will joyfully sing of Your righteousness.

15. O Lord, open my lips, That my mouth may declare Your praise.

16. For You do not delight in sacrifice, otherwise I would give it; You are not pleased with burnt offering.
