we have committed iniquity, we have transgressed, and we have departed and turned aside from Your commandments and from Your judgments;

To you, O Lord, [belongs] righteousness, and to us confusion of face, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, to them that are near, and to them that are far off in all the earth, wherever You have scattered them, for the sin which they have committed.

To you, O Lord our God, [belong] compassion and forgiveness, whereas we have departed [from You.]

Moreover, all Israel has transgressed Your law, and have refused to heed Your voice; so the curse has come upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against Him.

And they shall confess their sins, and the sins of their fathers, that they have transgressed and neglected Me, and that they have walked perversely before Me,

And I will remember the covenant of Jacob, and the covenant of Isaac, and the covenant of Abraham will I remember.

and they shall turn their hearts in the land where they have been carried captives, and turn in the land of their sojourning, and supplicate You, saying, We have sinned, we have done unjustly, we have transgressed,

then shall You hear from heaven, Your established dwelling place,

then if My people, on whom My name is called, should repent, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their evil ways, I also will hear from heaven, and I will be merciful to their sins, and I will heal their land.

And the children of Israel separated themselves from every stranger, and stood and confessed their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers.

And they stood in their place, and read in the Book of the Law of the Lord their God; and they confessed [their sins] to the Lord, and worshipped the Lord their God.

I acknowledged my sin, and hid not my iniquity; I said, I will confess my iniquity to the Lord; and You forgave the ungodliness of my heart. Pause.

Nevertheless, know your iniquity, that you have sinned against the Lord your God, and have scattered your ways to strangers under every shady tree, but you did not hearken to My voice, says the Lord.

If we claim that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

If we claim that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.

and bestowing mercy on them that love Me, to [the] thousands [of them,] and on them that keep My commandments.

And the Lord passed by before his face, and proclaimed, The Lord God, gracious and merciful, longsuffering and very compassionate, and true,

and keeping justice and mercy for thousands, taking away iniquity and unrighteousness and sins; and He will not clear the guilty; bringing the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and to the children's children, to the third and fourth generation.

The Lord [is] longsuffering and merciful, and true, removing transgressions and iniquities and sins, and He shall by no means clear the guilty, visiting the sins of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generation.

Forgive this people their sin according to Your great mercy, as You were favorable to them from Egypt until now.

and doing mercifully to thousands of them that love Me, and that keep My commandments.

You shall know therefore, that the Lord your God, He [is] God, a faithful God, who keeps covenant and mercy for them that love Him, and for those that keep His commandments to a thousand generations,

and he said: Lord God of Israel, there is no God like You in heaven above and on the earth below, keeping covenant and mercy with Your servant who walks before You with all his heart;

And I said, I pray, O Lord God of heaven, the mighty [One], the great and terrible, keeping Your covenant and mercy to them that love Him, and to those that keep His commandments.

And now, O our God, the powerful, the great, the mighty, and the terrible, keeping Your covenant and Your mercy, let not all this trouble seem little in Your sight which has come upon us, and our kings, and our princes, and our priests, and our prophets, and our fathers, and upon all Your people, from the days of the kings of Assyria even to this day.

O great Lord! You have made the heaven and the earth by Your great power, and with Your high and lofty arm; nothing can be hidden from You.

the Lord of great counsel, and mighty in deeds, the Great Almighty God, and Lord of great name. Your eyes are upon the ways of the children of men, to give to everyone according to his way;

Who is a God like You, canceling iniquities, and passing over the sins of the remnant of His inheritance? And He has not kept His anger for a testimony, for He delights in mercy.

He shall give blessings truly to Jacob, and mercy to Abraham, as You swore to our fathers, according to the former days.

God is jealous, and the Lord avenges; the Lord avenges with wrath; the Lord takes vengeance on His adversaries, and He cuts off His enemies.

He threatens the sea, and dries it up, and exhausts all the rivers: the land of Bashan and Carmel are brought low, and the flourishing [trees] of Lebanon have come to nought.

Who shall stand before His anger? And who shall withstand in the anger of His wrath? His wrath brings to nought kingdoms, and the rocks are thrown down by Him.

to perform the mercy [promised] to our fathers and to remember His holy covenant,

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.

Blessed is the man who endures temptation; because when he is approved, he shall receive the crown of life which the Lord promised to those who love Him.

Listen, my beloved brothers. Did God not choose the poor of the world [to be] rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those that love Him?
