For, behold, thou hast loved truth, thou didst make plain to me the secret and hidden things of thy wisdom.

Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be cleansed; tliou shalt wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

Thou shalt make me hear joy and gladness; the bones which have been humbled shall rejoice.
