Bloodguiltiness

{When I say} to the wicked, 'Wicked [one], you will certainly die,' and you {did not speak} to warn [the] wicked from his way, he, [the] wicked, will die by his guilt, but his blood I will seek from your hand.

Swearing and lying, murdering and stealing, and adultery break out, and bloodshed follows bloodshed.

And [when] they resisted and reviled [him], he shook out [his] clothes [and] said to them, "Your blood [be] on your [own] heads! I [am] guiltless! From now on I will go to the Gentiles!"

Therefore I testify to you on this very day that I am guiltless of the blood of all [of you],

Thou god

Hurry to help me, O Lord, my salvation.

Our God [is] a God of deliverances, and to [the] Yahweh the Lord belong escapes from death.

O Yahweh, God of my salvation, I cry out by day [and] through the night before you.

Look! God [is] my salvation; I will trust, and I will not be afraid, for my strength and might [is] Yah, Yahweh; and he has become salvation for me."

Israel is saved by Yahweh [with] everlasting salvation; you shall not be ashamed, and you shall not be humiliated {to all eternity}.

Yet I will rejoice in Yahweh; I will exult in the God of my salvation.

Tongue

Then my tongue will proclaim your righteousness, [and] your praise all day.

My mouth will tell of your righteousness, your salvation {all day long}, though I do not know [the full] sum [of them].

I will give you thanks, O Lord my God, with all my heart, and glorify your name forever,

Righteousness

After all that has come upon us for our evil practices and for our great guilt--you, our God, have held back less than our guilt [deserved] and you have given us a remainder such as this.

You are righteous in everything that has come on us, for you dealt faithfully, and we have acted wickedly.

"{Righteousness belongs to you, O Lord}, and on us [is] open shame, [just] as [it is] this day to the people of Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to all Israel, {those who are near and those who are far off} in all the lands [to] which you have driven them, because of their infidelity which they displayed against you.

For ignoring the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God.

so that [they may] make known in Zion the name of Yahweh, and his praise in Jerusalem,
