Nor has the eye seen a God besides You,
Who acts in behalf of the one who (B)waits for Him.
You (C)meet him who rejoices and (D)does righteousness,
Who (E)remembers You in Your ways.
Behold, (F)You were angry; indeed we have sinned—
We continued in them a long time—
And shall we be saved?
For all of us have become like one who is (G)unclean,
And all our (H)righteous deeds are like a filthy garment;
And all of us (I)wither like a leaf,
And our (J)iniquities, like the wind, carry us away.
