³³ In all that has happened to us, you have remained righteous;^(A) you have acted faithfully, while we acted wickedly.^(B)

⁵ we have sinned^(A) and done wrong.^(B) We have been wicked and have rebelled; we have turned away^(C) from your commands and laws.^{(D) 6} We have not listened^(E) to your servants the prophets,^(F) who spoke in your name to our kings, our princes and our ancestors,^(G) and to all the people of the land.

⁷ “Lord, you are righteous,^(H) but this day we are covered with shame^(I)—the people of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem and all Israel, both near and far, in all the countries where you have scattered^(J) us because of our unfaithfulness^(K) to you.^{(L) 8} We and our kings, our princes and our ancestors are covered with shame, Lord, because we have sinned against you.^{(M) 9} The Lord our God is merciful and forgiving,^(N) even though we have rebelled against him;^{(O) 10} we have not obeyed the Lord our God or kept the laws he gave us through his servants the prophets.^{(P) 11} All Israel has transgressed^(Q) your law^(R) and turned away, refusing to obey you.

“Therefore the curses^(S) and sworn judgments^(T) written in the Law of Moses, the servant of God, have been poured out on us, because we have sinned^(U) against you. ¹² You have fulfilled^(V) the words spoken against us and against our rulers by bringing on us great disaster.^(W) Under the whole heaven nothing has ever been done like^(X) what has been done to Jerusalem.^{(Y) 13} Just as it is written in the Law of Moses, all this disaster has come on us, yet we have not sought the favor of the Lord^(Z) our God by turning from our sins and giving attention to your truth.^{(AA) 14} The Lord did not hesitate to bring the disaster^(AB) on us, for the Lord our God is righteous in everything he does;^(AC) yet we have not obeyed him.^(AD)
