The Bible (sometimes The Book or Good Book; from Greek (τα) βιβλια, (ta) biblia, (the) books, plural of βιβλιον, biblion, "book", originally a diminutive of βιβλος, biblos, which in turn is derived from βυβλος—byblos, meaning "papyrus", from the ancient Phoenician city of Byblos which exported this writing material), is the classical name for the Hebrew Bible of Judaism or the combination of the Old Testament and New Testament of Christianity ("The Bible" therefore actually refers to at least two different Bibles). It is thus applied to sacred scriptures. Many Christian English speakers refer to the Christian Bible as "the good book". For many people, their Bible is the revealed word of God or an authoritative record of the relationship between God, the world, and humankind. Both Bibles have been the most widely distributed of books. It has also been translated more times, and into more languages, than any other book. The complete Bible, or portions of it, have been translated into more than 2,100 languages. It is said that more than 5 billion copies of the Bible have been sold since 1815, making it the biggest selling book of all-time.

Chapter 51



1: Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.

2: Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

3: For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.

4: Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
Rom 3:4

5: Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

6: Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thoushalt make me to know wisdom.

7: Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

8: Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken mayrejoice.

9: Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.

10: Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

11: Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.

12: Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

13: Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.

14: Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.

15: O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.

16: For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.

17: The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

18: Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.

19: Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thinealtar.
Psalms 52
