- All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away.
- No one calls on your name or strives to lay hold of you; for you have hidden your face from us and made us waste away because of our sins.
- Yet, O LORD, you are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand.
- Do not be angry beyond measure, O LORD; do not remember our sins forever. Oh, look upon us, we pray, for we are all your people.
- Your sacred cities have become a desert; even Zion is a desert, Jerusalem a desolation.

- For all of us have become like one who is unclean, And all our righteous deeds are like a filthy garment; And all of us wither like a leaf, And our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.
- There is no one who calls on Your name, Who arouses himself to take hold of You; For You have hidden Your face from us And have delivered us into the power of our iniquities.
- But now, O LORD, You are our Father, We are the clay, and You our potter; And all of us are the work of Your hand.
- Do not be angry beyond measure, O LORD, Nor remember iniquity forever; Behold, look now, all of us are Your people.
- Your holy cities have become a wilderness, Zion has become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
