12 For our atransgressions are multiplied before You,
And our bsins answer against us;
For our transgressions are with us,
And we know our iniquities:
13 Transgressing and adenying Yahweh,
And turning back from our God,
Speaking boppression and revolt,
Conceiving in and cuttering from the heart lying words.
14 aJustice is turned back,
And brighteousness stands far away;
For truth has stumbled in the street,
And rightness cannot enter.
15 So it is that truth is missing;
And he who turns aside from evil amakes himself plunder.
Then Yahweh saw,
And it was evil in His eyes bthat there was no justice.
