PRAYER PSALM 51

Baruch Ata, YHVH, Elohey Yisrael, Avi.

               (Bless You, YHVH - Elohim of Israel, my Father)

O YHVH - Bor’ee (my Creator), You know that I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin my mother conceived me.  Therefore, I acknowledge my transgressions, and my sin is always before me.   Against You, You only, have I sinned and done evil in Your sight.  Therefore, El Shofet (Judge), You are just when You speak and blameless when You judge.  For You desire truth in the inward parts and in the hidden part You, Elohey Emet (God of Truth), will make me to know wisdom.

O YHVH - Moshi’ee (my Deliverer), have mercy upon me, according to Your loving kindness; according to the multitude of Your tender mercies blot out my transgressions.  Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin. Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O YHVH - Yeshua’tee (my Salvation).  Hide Your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquities.  Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.  Make me hear joy and gladness, that the bones You have broken may rejoice.

Then create in me a clean heart, O YHVH, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.  Do not cast me away from Your presence and do not take from me Ruach Kod’she’cha (Spirit of Your Holiness).  Restore to me the joy of Your salvation and uphold me by a generous spirit.

For You, El Go’ali (my Redeemer) do not desire sacrifice or delight in burnt offerings, else I would give it. However, the sacrifices that You are interested in are a broken spirit, a broken and a contrite heart; these, O YHVH, You will not despise.  And while my heart is in this condition, I shall teach transgressors Your ways, and sinners will be converted to You.

I pray, Abba, in Your good pleasure be merciful to Tziyon and build the walls of Yeru’shala’yim.  Then You will be pleased with the true sacrifices of righteousness, and those who are in Tziyon will burn offerings and whole burnt offerings on Your altar.

O YHVH - Elohey Tzid’kee (God my Righteousness), open my lips, and my mouth will show forth Your praise, and my tongue will sing aloud of Your righteousness.

Hallelu-Yah!!!  For You, YHVH, are Elohim. You are Elohey Yisrael, Elohey Avraham, Yitzchak and Ya’acov.  Avi the Almighty reigns!
