Psalms 51:14. Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, -

It took David a long time to come to that point, and to call his sin by its right name. He had really been the murderer of Uriah, and he tried to cover his guilt by saying, "The sword devoureth one as well as another." But now he tells the whole truth: "Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God,"-

Psalms 51:14. Thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.

"Once let me get rid of my great sin, and I will give thee great praise. Wash my bloodguiltiness away with the blood of Jesus, and then I will never leave off proclaiming the glory of thy grace."
