O Lord my God,
circumcise my heart, and make it strong;
circumcise my heart; make me love you
with all my heart and with all my soul,
that you may be my portion forever.
Circumcise my heart, that I may seek
your commendation, not my own.
Circumcise my heart, that I may
understand how your heart
was broken in my behalf.

Gentiles; and he will be mocked and insulted and spat upon. After
they have flogged him, they will kill him, and on the third day he will rise
again."
