Psalm 51:16-18
Complete Jewish Bible

16 (14) Rescue me from the guilt of shedding blood,
God, God of my salvation!
Then my tongue will sing
about your righteousness —
17 (15) Adonai, open my lips;
then my mouth will praise you.

18 (16) For you don’t want sacrifices, or I would give them;
you don’t take pleasure in burnt offerings.

New International Version

16 You do not delight in sacrifice,(A) or I would bring it;
    you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings.
17 My sacrifice,(B) O God, is[a] a broken spirit;
    a broken and contrite heart(C)
    you, God, will not despise.

18 May it please you to prosper Zion,(D)
    to build up the walls of Jerusalem.(E)
