Psalms 51:15 Context
13Then will I teach transgressours thy wayes, and sinners shalbe conuerted vnto thee. 14Deliuer mee from blood-guiltinesse, O God, thou God of my saluation: and my tongue shall sing alowd of thy righteousnesse. 15O Lord open thou my lips, and my mouth shall shew foorth thy praise. 16For thou desirest not sacrifice: else would I giue it: thou delightest not in burnt offering. 17The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
