- Greek and Latin Bibles number most Psalms one lower than Hebrew and English Bibles.
1 Para el director del coro. Un salmo de David. Cuando el profeta Natán vino a él después de haber cometido adulterio con Betsabé. Ten misericordia de mi, ¡Oh, Dios! Por tu gran amor, por tu infinita bondad, por favor, limpia mis pecados.
1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David, when Nathan the prophet came to him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba. Have mercy on me, God, according to your loving kindness. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.
2 Lava toda mi culpa; límpiame de mi pecado.
2 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity. Cleanse me from my sin.
3 Admito mi rebelión; mi pecado siempre me golpea a la cara.
3 For I know my transgressions. My sin is constantly before me.
4 He pecado contra ti, solamente contra ti. He hecho el mal ante tus ojos. Por eso, lo que dices está bien, y lo que me juzgas es correcto.
4 Against you, and you only, I have sinned, and done that which is evil in your sight, so you may be proved right when you speak, and justified when you judge.
5 Es verdad que nací siendo culpable, pecador desde el momento en que fui concebido.
5 Behold, I was born in iniquity. My mother conceived me in sin.
6 Pero tú quieres confiar en lo que hay en el interior; me has enseñado sabiduría desde lo más profundo.
6 Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts. You teach me wisdom in the inmost place.
7 Purifícame con hisopo para que pueda quedar limpio; lávame para que pueda ser blanco como la nieve.
7 Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
8 Por favor, permíteme escuchar alegría y felicidad otra vez; permite que los huesos que has roto se gocen una vez más.
8 Let me hear joy and gladness, that the bones which you have broken may rejoice.
9 Aparta tu cara de ver mis pecados; por favor, limpia mi culpa.
9 Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all of my iniquities.
10 Crea en mí, oh Dios, un corazón puro, y hazme fiel otra vez.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a right spirit within me.
11 No me expulses de tu presencia; no alejes tu Santo Espíritu de mí.
11 Don’t throw me from your presence, and don’t take your Holy Spirit from me.
12 Dame una vez más la alegría de tu salvación. Ayúdame a tener un carácter dispuesto.
12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation. Uphold me with a willing spirit.
13 Para entonces poder mostrarle tus caminos a los rebeldes, y los pecadores volverán a ti.
13 Then I will teach transgressors your ways. Sinners will be converted to you.
14 Perdóname, ¡Oh, Dios! Por toda la sangre que he derramado, y cantaré de alegría por tu bondad, Dios de mi salvación.
14 Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, the God of my salvation. My tongue will sing aloud of your righteousness.
15 ¡Abre mis labios para que pueda alabarte!
15 Lord, open my lips. My mouth will declare your praise.
16 Porque los sacrificios no te hacen feliz. Si así fuera, te hubiera traído uno. Pero los holocaustos no te alegran.
16 For you don’t delight in sacrifice, or else I would give it. You have no pleasure in burnt offering.
17 Los “sacrificios” que Dios quiere son los que nacen desde el interior, el arrepentimiento sincero. Dios no rechazará un corazón quebrantado y triste.
17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit. O God, you will not despise a broken and contrite heart.
18 Sé bueno con Sión. Ayuda a la ciudad. Reconstruye los muros de Jerusalén.
18 Do well in your good pleasure to Zion. Build the walls of Jerusalem.
19 Te alegrarás con los sacrificios que te damos con el espíritu correcto; te alegrarás por todos los tipos de sacrificios, y los becerros serán sacrificados en tu altar una vez más.
19 Then you will delight in the sacrifices of righteousness, in burnt offerings and in whole burnt offerings. Then they will offer bulls on your altar.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
How much availeth the Word of God to us for the correction of our life, both regarding His rewards to be expected, and His punishments to be feared, let each one measure in himself; and let him put his conscience without deceit before His eyes, and not flatter himself in a danger so great: for ye see that even our …

The sacrifice of God is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart the Lord will not despise." Because, therefore, God stands in need of nothing, He declares in the preceding Psalm: "I will take no calves out of thine house, nor he-goats out of thy fold.
But if "I was shapen in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me," where, I pray thee, O my God, where, Lord, or when was I, Thy servant, innocent?

… is this last lowliness of mind which that blessed prophet commends, picturing to us the temper that is not merely subdued, but utterly broken, when he saith, "The sacrifice for God is a contrite spirit, a contrite and an humble heart God will not despise." And the Three Children also offer this unto God as a great sacrifice, saying, "Nevertheless, …

… the Kingdoms, how by the Holy Ghost they prophesied themselves, and were rulers of the prophets;--and Samuel was called the Seer; and David says distinctly, The Spirit of the Lord spake by me, and in the Psalms, And take not thy Holy Spirit from me, and again, Thy good Spirit shall lead me in the land of righteousness.
