2 Take words with you
and return to the Lord.
Say to him:
“Forgive(A) all our sins
and receive us graciously,(B)
that we may offer the fruit of our lips.[a](C)
3 Assyria cannot save us;(D)
we will not mount warhorses.(E)
We will never again say ‘Our gods’(F)
to what our own hands have made,(G)
for in you the fatherless(H) find compassion.”
