11 All of us growl like bears;
    like doves we continue to moan mournfully.
We wait for justice but receive none,
    for deliverance but it is far from us.
12 For our transgressions against you are numerous,
    and our sins bear witness against us.
We are unable to forget our offenses,

    and our turning away from following him,
threatening acts of oppression and revolt,
    and uttering lies conceived in our hearts.

inciting revolt and oppression,(G)
    uttering lies(H) our hearts have conceived.
