Psalm 51:10,16-17

¹⁰Create in me a clean heart, O God,

and renew a right spirit within me.

...

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.
