Salmene 51,16

RepentanceThe law

14 Fri meg fra blodskyld, Gud, min frelses Gud;
Da skal min tunge juble over din rettferdighet.

15 Herre, åpne mine lepper,
Så min munn kan forkynne din pris.

For du har ikke lyst til offer, ellers ville jeg gi det;
Brennoffer har du ikke behag i.

17 Guds offer er en sønderbrutt ånd;
Et sønderknust og nedbøyd hjerte, Gud, vil du ikke forakte.

18 Gjør vel mot Sion i din nåde;
Bygg Jerusalems murer.
