Psalm 51:15-17

International Children’s Bible

¹⁵ Lord, let me speak
    so I may praise you.
¹⁶ You are not pleased by sacrifices.
    Otherwise, I would give them.
    You don’t want burnt offerings.
¹⁷ The sacrifice God wants is a willing spirit.
    God, you will not reject
    a heart that is broken and sorry for its sin.
