I acknowledged my sin to You,
And I did not hide my wickedness;
I said, “I will confess [all] my transgressions to the Lord”;
And You forgave the guilt of my sin. Selah.

We have heard with our ears, O God,
Our fathers have told us
The work You did in their days,
In the days of old.

Which we have heard and known,
And our fathers have told us.

For all our days pass away in Your wrath;
We have finished our years like a whispered sigh.
