3 For my transgressions I do know, And my sin [is] before me  continually.
         
                                
                        4 Against Thee, Thee only, I have sinned, And done the evil  thing in Thine eyes, So that Thou art righteous in Thy words,  Thou art pure in Thy judging.
         
                                
                        5 Lo, in iniquity I have been brought forth, And in sin doth  my mother conceive me.
         
                                
                        6 Lo, truth Thou hast desired in the inward parts, And in the  hidden part Wisdom Thou causest me to know.
         
                                
                        7 Thou cleansest me with hyssop and I am clean, Washest me,  and than snow I am whiter.
         
                                
                        8 Thou causest me to hear joy and gladness, Thou makest  joyful bones Thou hast bruised.
         
                                
                        9 Hide Thy face from my sin. And all mine iniquities blot  out.
