For the choir director. A Davidic psalm, when Nathan the prophet came to him after he had gone to Bathsheba.Be gracious to me, God,
according to Your faithful love;
according to Your abundant compassion,
blot out my rebellion.



Lord, in keeping with all Your righteous acts, may Your anger and wrath turn away from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain; for because of our sins and the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people have become an object of ridicule to all those around us.

“But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even raise his eyes to heaven but kept striking his chest and saying, ‘God, turn Your wrath from me—a sinner!’

Show us favor, Lord, show us favor,
for we’ve had more than enough contempt.

Hear the petition of Your servant
and Your people Israel,
which they pray toward this place.
May You hear in Your dwelling place in heaven.
May You hear and forgive.

May Your compassion come to me
so that I may live,
for Your instruction is my delight.

Lord, forgive Your people Israel You redeemed, and do not hold the shedding of innocent blood against them.’ Then they will be absolved of responsibility for bloodshed.

Lord, hear my voice when I call;
be gracious to me and answer me.

Show us Your faithful love, Lord,
and give us Your salvation.


Do not hide Your face from me in my day of trouble.
Listen closely to me;
answer me quickly when I call.

A Davidic psalm.Lord, hear my prayer.
In Your faithfulness listen to my plea,
and in Your righteousness answer me.

Lord, hear my voice when I call;
be gracious to me and answer me.

Save with Your right hand and answer me
so that those You love may be rescued.



Lord, hear my voice when I call;
be gracious to me and answer me.
