11 All of us growl like bears,
And (A)moan sadly like doves;
We hope for (B)justice, but there is none,
For salvation, but it is far from us.
12 For our (C)transgressions are multiplied before You,
And our (D)sins answer against us;
For our transgressions are with us,
And [a]we know our iniquities:
13 Transgressing and (E)denying Yahweh,
And turning back from our God,

Conceiving in and (G)uttering from the heart lying words.

  1. Isaiah 59:12 Lit our iniquities we know them

11 We all growl like bears;
    we moan mournfully like doves.(A)
We look for justice, but find none;
    for deliverance, but it is far away.

12 For our offenses(B) are many in your sight,
    and our sins testify(C) against us.
Our offenses are ever with us,
    and we acknowledge our iniquities:(D)
13 rebellion(E) and treachery against the Lord,
    turning our backs(F) on our God,
inciting revolt and oppression,(G)
    uttering lies(H) our hearts have conceived.
