17 My sacrifice is a humble spirit, O God;
    you will not reject a humble and repentant heart.

18 O God, be kind to Zion and help her;
    rebuild the walls of Jerusalem.
19 Then you will be pleased with proper sacrifices
    and with our burnt offerings;
    and bulls will be sacrificed on your altar.

17 My sacrifice,(A) O God, is[a] a broken spirit;
    a broken and contrite heart(B)
    you, God, will not despise.

18 May it please you to prosper Zion,(C)
    to build up the walls of Jerusalem.(D)
19 Then you will delight in the sacrifices of the righteous,(E)
    in burnt offerings(F) offered whole;
    then bulls(G) will be offered on your altar.
