2 Lorsque Nathan, le prophète, vint à lui, après que David fut allé vers Bath-Schéba.

3 O Dieu! Aie pitié de moi dans ta bonté; Selon ta grande miséricorde, efface mes transgressions;

4 Lave-moi complètement de mon iniquité, Et purifie-moi de mon péché.

5 Car je reconnais mes transgressions, Et mon péché est constamment devant moi.

6 J’ai péché contre toi seul, Et j’ai fait ce qui est mal à tes yeux, En sorte que tu seras juste dans ta sentence, Sans reproche dans ton jugement.
