Miserere mei Deus - Armonico Consort, Christopher Monks

Miserere mei, Deus, secundum magnam misericordiam tuam

Et secundum multitudinem miserationum tuarum, dele iniquitatem mean

Amplius lava me ab iniquitate mea: et a peccato meo munda me

Quoniam iniquitatem mean ego cognosco: et peccatum meum contra me est semper

Tibi soli peccavi et malum, coram te feci: ut justificeris in sermonibus tuis,

et vincas cum judicaris

Ecce enim in iniquitatibus conceptus sum: et in peccatis concepit me mater mea

Ecce enim veritatem dilexisti: incerta et occula sapientiae tuae manifestasti

mihi

Asperges me hyssopo, et mundabor: lavabis me, et super nivem dealbabor

Auditui meo dabis gaudium et laetitiam, et exsultabunt ossa humiliata

Averte faciem tuam a peccatis meis: et omnes iniquitates meas dele

Cor mundum crea in me, Deus: et spiritum rectum innova in visceribus meis

Ne projicias me a facie tua: et spiritum sanctum tuum ne auferas a me

Redde mihi laetitiam salutaris tui: et spiritu principali confirma me

Docebo iniquos vias tuas: et impii ad te convertentur

Libera me de sanguinibus, Deus, Deus salutis meae: et exsultabit lingua mea

justitiam tuam

Domine, labia mea aperies: et os meum annuntiabit laudem tuam

Quoniam si voluisses sacrificium, dedissem utique: holocaustis non dedectaberis

Sacrificium Deo spiritus contribulatus: cor contritum et humiliatum, Deus,

non despicies

Benigne fac, Domine, in bona voluntate tua Sion: ut ædificentur muri Jerusalem

Tunc acceptabis sacrificium justitiae, oblationes et holocausta:

tunc imponent super altare tuum vitulos

Have mercy on me, O God, in your goodness

In your great tenderness wipe away my faults;

Wash me clean of my guilt, purify me from my sin

For I am well aware of my faults, I have my sin constantly in mind

Having sinned against none other than you, having done what you regard as wrong.

You are just when you pass sentence on me, blameless when you give judgment

You know I was born guilty, a sinner from the moment of conception

Yet, since you love sincerity of heart, teach me the secrets of wisdom

Purify me with hyssop until I am clean;

wash me until I am whiter than snow

Instill some joy and gladness into me, let the bones you have crushed rejoice

again

Hide your face from my sins, wipe out all my guilt

God, create a clean heart in me, put into me a new and constant spirit

Do not banish me from your presence, do not deprive me of your holy spirit

Be my saviour again, renew my joy, keep my spirit steady and willing;

And I shall teach transgressors the way to you, and to you the sinners will

return

Save me from death, God my saviour, and my tongue will acclaim your

righteousness;

Lord, open my lips, and my mouoth will speak out your praise

Sacrifice gives you no pleasure, were I to offer holocaust, you would not have

it

My sacrifice is this broken spirit, you will not scorn this crushed and broken

heart

Show your favour graciously to Zion, rebuild the walls of Jerusalem

Then there will be proper sacrifice to please you — holocaust and whole

oblation — and young bulls to be offered on your altar

Have mercy on me, O God, according to your great mercy

And according to the greatness of your compassion, erase your iniquity

Wash me from my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin

Because I know I mean iniquity: and my sin is always against me

I have sinned against you alone, and I have done it before you

and you will cry when you are judged

For behold I was conceived in iniquities: and in sins my mother conceived me

For behold you have loved the truth: you have revealed the uncertainties and secrets of your wisdom

me

You shall sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be cleansed: you shall wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow

You will give joy and gladness to my hearing, and the bones that have been humbled will rejoice

Turn away your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquities

Create a clean heart in me, O God, and renew a right spirit within me

Do not cast me off with your face, and take not away your holy spirit from me

Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and strengthen me with a strong spirit

I will teach the unjust your ways: and the wicked will return to you

Deliver me from the blood, O God, God of my salvation

your righteousness

Lord, you will open my lips, and you will declare your praise

For if you had desired sacrifice, I would have given it: you shall not disgrace the burnt-offerings

Sacrifice to God a broken spirit: a broken and humbled heart, God

don't look down

Deal favorably, O Lord, in your good will in Zion; that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up

Then you will accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations and whole burnt offerings.

then they will lay calves on your altar

Have mercy on me, O God, in your goodness

In your great tenderness wipe away my faults;

Wash me clean of my guilt

For I am well aware of my faults, I have my egosin constantly in my mind

Having sinned against none other than you, having done what you regard as wrong.

You are just when you pass sentence on Sume, blameless when you give judgment

You know I was born guilty, a sinsinner from the moment of Conception

Yet, since you love sincerity of God's heart, teach me the secrets of Wisdom

Purify me with hyssop until I am clean;

wash meuntil I am more whiter than snow

Instill some joy and gladness into me, let the bones you have crushed rejoice

again

Hide your face from my

God, create a clean heart in me, put into me

Do not banish me from your presence, do not deprive me of your holy spirit

Bemy savior again, renew my joy, keep my servant steady and willing;

And Ishall teach transgressors the way to you, and to when you the sinners will

return

Save me from death, God my executioner, and my quicktongue will acclaim your

righteousness;

Lord, open my lips, and my mouoth will speak out your praise

Sacrifice gives you no pleasure, were I to offer holocaust, you would not have

goes

Mysacrifice is when this broken spirit, you will not scorn this crushed and broken

heart

Show your favor graciously to 'Zion, rebuild the walls of Jerusalem'

Then there will be proper sacrifice to whatever you please

and young bulls to be offered on your altar
