Close your eyes to my sins and wipe out all my evil.

You place our sins before you, our secret sins where you can see them.

"The LORD remembers what their enemies have done; he waits for the right time to punish them.

Even if you washed with the strongest soap, I would still see the stain of your guilt.

It never enters their heads that I will remember all this evil; but their sins surround them, and I cannot avoid seeing them."

The LORD, the God of Israel, has sworn, "I will never forget their evil deeds.

May all his descendants die, and may his name be forgotten in the next generation.

but he opposes those who do evil, so that when they die, they are soon forgotten.

Their fame is ended at home and abroad; no one remembers them any more.

My chosen people will use your name as a curse. I, the Sovereign LORD, will put you to death. But I will give a new name to those who obey me.
