8Let me hear the sounds of joy and gladness;

and though you have crushed me and broken me,

I will be happy once again.

9Close your eyes to my sins

and wipe out all my evil.

10Create a pure heart in me, O God, and put a new and loyal spirit in me.

11Do not banish me from your presence;

do not take your holy spirit away from me.

12Give me again the joy that comes from your salvation,

and make me willing to obey you.
