12 You are aware of our many rebellious acts.
Our sins testify against us.
Our rebellious acts are with us.
We know our wrongdoings.
13 We have rebelled and denied the Lord.
We have turned away from our God.

and righteousness stands far away.
Truth has fallen in the street,
and honesty can’t come in.

    honesty cannot enter.
