rsv Daniel:9:5-8 SEEK
Seeker Overlay ON
*
we have sinned and done wrong and acted wickedly and rebelled ,
turning aside from thy commandments and ordinances ;
*
we have not listened to thy servants the prophets ,
who spoke in thy name to our kings ,
our princes ,
and our fathers ,
and to all the people of the land .
*
To thee ,
O Lord ,
belongs righteousness ,
but to us confusion of face ,
as at this day ,
to the men of Judah ,
to the inhabitants of Jerusalem ,
and to all Israel ,
those that are near and those that are far away ,
in all the lands to which thou hast driven them ,
because of the treachery which they have committed against thee .
*
To us ,
O Lord ,
belongs confusion of face ,
to our kings ,
to our princes ,
and to our fathers ,
because we have sinned against thee .
