Psalm 51:15-17

Create in Me a Clean Heart, O God

¹⁵ O Lord, open my lips,
and my mouth will declare your praise.
¹⁶ _w For you will not delight in sacrifice, or I would give it;
you will not be pleased with a burnt offering.
¹⁷ The sacrifices of God are _x a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.
