27:009:005 We have sinned, and have committed iniquity,
and have done
wickedly,
and have rebelled, even by departing from thy
precepts
and from thy judgments:
27:009:006 Neither have we hearkened unto thy servants
the prophets,
which
spake in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our
fathers,
and to all the people of the land.
27:009:007 O lord, righteousness belongeth unto
thee, but unto us
confusion
of faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and
to
the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel,
that are
near,
and that are far off, through all the countries whither
thou
hast driven them, because of their trespass that they
have
trespassed against thee.
27:009:008 O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face,
to our kings, to
our
princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned
against
thee.
27:009:009 To the Lord our God belong mercies and
forgivenesses, though
we
have rebelled against him;
27:009:010 Neither have we obeyed the voice of the
lord our God, to walk
in
his laws, which he set before us by his servants the
prophets.
27:009:011 Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law,
even by departing,
that
they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse
is
poured
upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of
Moses
the servant of God, because we have sinned against
him.
27:009:012 And he hath confirmed his words, which
he spake against us,
and
against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon
us a
great
evil: for under the whole heaven hath not been
done as
hath
been done upon Jerusalem.
27:009:013 As it is written in the law of Moses, all
this evil is come
upon
us: yet made we not our prayer before the lord
our God,
that
we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy
truth.
27:009:014 Therefore hath the lord watched upon
the evil, and brought it
upon
us: for the lord our God is righteous in
all his works
which
he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice.
27:009:015 And now, O Lord our God, that hast brought
thy people forth
out
of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast gotten
thee
renown, as at this day; we have sinned, we have done
wickedly.
27:009:016 O lord, according to all thy righteousness,
I beseech thee,
let
thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city
Jerusalem,
thy holy mountain: because for our sins, and for
the
iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people
are
become
a reproach to all that are about us.
