¹² For our offenses^(A) are many in your sight,
    and our sins testify^(B) against us.
Our offenses are ever with us,
    and we acknowledge our iniquities:^(C)
13 rebellion^(D) and treachery against the Lord,
    turning our backs^(E) on our God,
inciting revolt and oppression,^(F)
    uttering lies^(G) our hearts have conceived.
¹⁴ So justice^(H) is driven back,
    and righteousness^(I) stands at a distance;
truth^(J) has stumbled in the streets,
    honesty cannot enter.
