耶和華啊，我洗手表明清白，再走到你的壇前，

我潔身自愛，保持清白，實屬徒然。

拯救我的上帝啊，求你赦免我殺人流血的罪，使我頌揚你的公義。

因為這些不過是關於飲食和各樣潔淨禮儀的外在規條，等新秩序的時代一到，便不再有效了。

誰能知道自己的過失呢？求你赦免我心中隱藏的過錯。

彼拉多見再說也無濟於事，反而會引起騷亂，於是拿了一盆水來，在眾人面前洗手，說：「流這義人的血，罪不在我，你們自己負責。」眾人都說：「流祂血的責任由我們和我們的子孫承擔！」

求你洗淨我的罪過，清除我的罪惡。

求你用牛膝草潔淨我的罪，使我乾淨；求你洗淨我，使我比雪更白。

即使我用雪水淨身，用鹼水洗手，

縱然你用鹼和許多肥皂清洗，你在我面前仍然罪跡斑斑。」這是主耶和華說的。
