The 51st Psalm


1. Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. 1. Aching of vice, king contacts God: don't curse my soul, dear Lord, it's tortured; soothe thou my aching soul; don't even remember my petty sinning.
2. Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. 2. I'm immensely changed from sinful ways on my throne. I quit harem.
3. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. 3. I now ever see in front of me, as blame, my sorry, degrading sickness.
4. Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest. 4. The deep sin-hole! I'm not going to try and whitewash these base, unjust deeds; the sick, the naughty, the evil, and the unjustifiable things that I have done. 
5. Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. 5. In birth I indicated delinquency. Ah, even in mommy I showed passion.
6. Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom. 6. Ah, when the Lord that nurtured me looketh down inside me, I'd best worship him, not that stupid, dark Satan.
7. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.  7. Oh, when my head's asperged with new balm, ablution helps halt carnal sin wishes.
8. Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.  8. I ached. My joints? Just shambles to bear! Ah, he can renew and hook them together okay.
9. Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.  9. Hey, I'm amoral, and I'll quit my sin if thou findest it obscene.
10. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. 10. Place greater wisdom within me. Ah, innocent again, retire hatred.
11. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. 11. My Lord, thy affection maketh me happy. Can it not treat men's sorrow? Yes!
12. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. 12. The Lord's truth's what I'm so very happy to meditate on in the journey of life.
13. Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.  13. Thy servants shall bind Satan. Enlightened slayer rues sorrow, connects with thee.
14. Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness. 14. Foul human sin! If it's in vogue, let me go do my moral duty based on God. Lord everlasting, I shall go shout of thy goodness.
15. O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.  15. Hey, my Lord will help to destroy that harsh human of pompous sin.
16. For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering. 16.  If I go with heart set true to the Lord, it's virtuous. No insincere self-deceit; no bluffing God!
17. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.  17. Pride's a true poison of darkness. Await to check it at the Lord's door before going in. He can't bear it.
18. Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.  18. Godly tune: "The Soul of Talmud Zeal - Proud be Glorious Jewish Nationhood!" 
19. Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.  19. The best of our clean sheep, perfect unhurt cows, and fat fowl shall be brought in nightly before the Lord's fire for killing: then he shuns us not; we attain his faith.
