Psalms 51

David; penitentialDavid’s great confession after Bathsheba: “Create in me a clean heart, O God.”

David’s profound confession after his sin with Bathsheba, pleading for mercy according to God’s steadfast love: “Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.” He acknowledges his sin against God, longs for restored joy, and offers the sacrifice God accepts — a broken and contrite heart.
