15 And now, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast gotten thee renown, as at this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly.

16 O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain: because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all that are about us.

17 Now therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of thy servant, and his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake.

18 O my God, incline thine ear, and hear; open thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy name: for we do not present our supplications before thee for our righteousnesses, but for thy great mercies.

19 O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, hearken and do; defer not, for thine own sake, O my God: for thy city and thy people are called by thy name.

15 And now, O Lord our God, (A)who brought Your people out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and made Yourself (B)a name, as it is this day—we have sinned, we have done wickedly!

16 “O Lord, (C)according to all Your righteousness, I pray, let Your anger and Your fury be turned away from Your city Jerusalem, (D)Your holy mountain; because for our sins, (E)and for the iniquities of our fathers, (F)Jerusalem and Your people (G)are a reproach to all those around us. 17 Now therefore, our God, hear the prayer of Your servant, and his supplications, (H)and (I)for the Lord’s sake [a]cause Your face to shine on [b]Your sanctuary, (J)which is desolate. 18 (K)O my God, incline Your ear and hear; open Your eyes (L)and see our desolations, and the city (M)which is called by Your name; for we do not present our supplications before You because of our righteous deeds, but because of Your great mercies. 19 O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city and Your people are called by Your name.”
