My tongue shall rejoice in thy righteousness. O Lord, thou shalt open my mouth, and my lips shall tell of thy praise.
For if thou hadst desired sacrifice, I would have given it; in whole burnt offerings thou wilt not delight.
The sacrifice unto God is a broken spirit, a broken and a humbled heart God shall not despise.
