OET (OET-RV) For the musical director: a song by David from when the prophet Natan had gone to him after David had committed adultery with Bat-Sheva.
⇔  Have mercy on me, God, because of your loyal commitment.
⇔  ≈ Blot out my disobedience, because you’re so merciful.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

כְּ⁠חַסְדֶּ֑⁠ךָ

(Some words not found in UHB: to,choirmaster song of,David )

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of covenant faithfulness, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [according to all the ways you are faithful to your covenant]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

רַ֝חֲמֶ֗י⁠ךָ מְחֵ֣ה פְשָׁעָֽ⁠י

(Some words not found in UHB: to,choirmaster song of,David )

If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of compassions and transgressions, you could express the same ideas in other ways. Alternate translation: [of ways you care for me, forgive all the ways I have sinned against you]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

מְחֵ֣ה פְשָׁעָֽ⁠י

(Some words not found in UHB: to,choirmaster song of,David )

David is speaking of his transgressions as if they were words written in ink on a scroll that God could wipe away to erase them and make them disappear. The basic idea is that David wants God to regard his transgressions as if they had never occurred; that is, he wants God to forgive him for committing them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [completely forgive my transgressions]
