40
Let us search out and examine our ways, And turn back to the Lord;
41
Let us lift our hearts and hands To God in heaven.
42
We have transgressed and rebelled; You have not pardoned.
43
You have covered Yourself with anger And pursued us; You have slain and not pitied.
44
You have covered Yourself with a cloud, That prayer should not pass through.
45
You have made us an offscouring and refuse In the midst of the peoples.
46
All our enemies Have opened their mouths against us.
47
Fear and a snare have come upon us, Desolation and destruction.
48
My eyes overflow with rivers of water For the destruction of the daughter of my people.
49
My eyes flow and do not cease, Without interruption,
50
Till the Lord from heaven Looks down and sees.
