¹⁰Create in me a clean heart, O God,
   and put a new and right^* spirit within me.
¹¹Do not cast me away from your presence,
   and do not take your holy spirit from me.
¹²Restore to me the joy of your salvation,
   and sustain in me a willing^* spirit.

¹³Then I will teach transgressors your ways,
   and sinners will return to you.
¹⁴Deliver me from bloodshed, O God,
   O God of my salvation,
   and my tongue will sing aloud of your deliverance.

¹⁵O Lord, open my lips,
   and my mouth will declare your praise.
