Psalms 51:8-9

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 51:8-9. Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.

"Do not look at my sins, Lord. Forget them; turn thy back upon them; and blot out all mine iniquities." David comes back to his first prayer. "End my sins, Lord; blot them out, as when an account stands against a debtor, and the creditor erases it from the book. Do just so with my sin."
