Psalms 51:8 in Context — Psalms 51

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.

7 Voici, je suis né dans l’iniquité, Et ma mère m’a conçu dans le péché.

8 Mais tu veux que la vérité soit au fond du cœur: Fais donc pénétrer la sagesse au-dedans de moi!

9 Purifie-moi avec l’hysope, et je serai pur; Lave-moi, et je serai plus blanc que la neige.

10 Annonce-moi l’allégresse et la joie, Et les os que tu as brisés se réjouiront.
