A Confession of Wickedness

Therefore (A)justice is far from us,
And righteousness does not reach us;
We (B)hope for light, but there is darkness,
For brightness, but we walk in gloom.

Among those who are healthy we are (E)like the dead.

And (C)declares to a person what are His thoughts,
He who (D)makes dawn into darkness
And (E)treads on the high places of the earth,
(F)The Lord God of armies is His name.

He who made the (A)Pleiades and Orion,
And (B)changes deep darkness into morning,
[a]Who also (C)darkens day into night,
Who (D)calls for the waters of the sea
And pours them out on the surface of the earth,
The (E)Lord is His name.
