Psalm 51:2-4

Common English Bible

² Wash me completely clean of my guilt;
    purify me from my sin!
³ Because I know my wrongdoings,
    my sin is always right in front of me.
⁴ I’ve sinned against you—you alone.
    I’ve committed evil in your sight.
That’s why you are justified when you render your verdict,
    completely correct when you issue your judgment.
