Verse of the Day

Tahilliym 51:1–4 (Psalms)

Show favor to me, Alahym, according to Your Khasad. According to the abundance of Your compassion, wipe away my Pashaʿim. Wash me thoroughly from my ʿAwun, and cleanse me from my Khata. For I Yada my Pashaʿim, and my Khata is continually before me. Against You, You especially, have I Khata, and I have ʿAsah Raʿ in Your eyes, so that You are Tsadaq when You speak and pure when You Shaphat.
