Psalms 51:17
Berean Standard Bible
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise.
Context
15O Lord, open my lips,
and my mouth will declare Your praise. 16For You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it;
You take no pleasure in burnt offerings. 17The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit;
a broken and a contrite heart,
O God, You will not despise. 18In Your good pleasure, cause Zion to prosper;
build up the walls of Jerusalem. 19Then You will delight in righteous sacrifices,
in whole burnt offerings;
then bulls will be offered on Your altar.
