We lie down in our shame, and our confusion covers us; for we have sinned against Jehovah our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even to this day, and have not obeyed the voice of Jehovah our God.

I have surely heard Ephraim mourning to himself, saying, You have chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bull not broken in; turn me, and I shall be turned. For You are Jehovah my God.

If they shall confess their wilfulness and the wilfulness of their fathers, with their sin which they sinned against Me, and that also they have walked contrary to Me,

And it shall be when all these things have come on you, the blessing and the curse which I have set before you, and when you shall call them to mind among all the nations where Jehovah your God has driven you,

He will observe to men, and say, I have sinned and perverted righteousness; and it was not equally repaid to me,

He who covers his sins shall not be blessed; but whoever confesses and leaves them shall have mercy.

I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against Heaven and before you

If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

And hast scattered

Lift up your eyes to the high places, and see. Where have you not been lain with? By the highways you have sat for them, like the Arabian in the wilderness; and you have defiled the land with your fornications and with your wickedness.

For long ago you broke your yoke and tore up your bonds; and you said, I will not transgress, when on every high hill and under every green tree you lay down like a harlot.

But you trusted in your beauty, and played the harlot because of your name, and poured out your fornications on all who passed by; it was his.

In that day a man shall look to his Maker, and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel.
