6For we are all become as one who is unclean, and all our righteousness are as a polluted garment: and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.
7There is none who calls on your name, who stirs up himself to take hold of you; for you have hid your face from us, and have consumed us by means of our iniquities.
8But now, Yahweh, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you our potter; and we all are the work of your hand.
9Don`t be angry very sore, Yahweh, neither remember iniquity forever: see, look, we beg you, we are all your people.
10Your holy cities are become a wilderness, Zion is become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
11Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised you, is burned with fire; and all our pleasant places are laid waste.
12Will you refrain yourself for these things, Yahweh? will you hold your peace, and afflict us very sore?
