Psalm 51:1-2
New King James Version
A Prayer of Repentance
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David (A)when Nathan the prophet went to him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba.
51 Have mercy upon me, O God,
According to Your lovingkindness;
According to the multitude of Your tender mercies,
(B)Blot out my transgressions.
2 (C)Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,
And cleanse me from my sin.
Psalm 51:7-10
New King James Version
7 (A)Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean;
Wash me, and I shall be (B)whiter than snow.
8 Make me hear joy and gladness,
That the bones You have broken (C)may rejoice.
9 Hide Your face from my sins,
And blot out all my iniquities.
10 (D)Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Psalm 103:8-12
New King James Version
8 (A)The Lord is merciful and gracious,
Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.
9 (B)He will not always strive with us,
Nor will He keep His anger forever.
10 (C)He has not dealt with us according to our sins,
Nor punished us according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heavens are high above the earth,
So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;
12 As far as the east is from the west,
So far has He (D)removed our transgressions from us.
