If your children sinned against him,
    he delivered them into the power of their transgression.
If you will seek God
    and make supplication to the Almighty,[a]
if you are pure and upright,
    surely then he will rouse himself for you
    and restore to you your rightful place.

If (A)your sons have sinned against Him,
He has cast them away [a]for their transgression.

And make your supplication to the Almighty,
If you were pure and upright,
Surely now He would [b]awake for you,
And prosper your rightful dwelling place.
