“Even when our sins speak against us, O Lord, do something for the good of Your name. For we have fallen away from You many times. We have sinned against You. You are the Hope of Israel, the One Who saves it in time of trouble. Why are You like a stranger in the land? Why are You like a traveler who has set up his tent for the night? Why are You like a man surprised, like a strong man who cannot save? Yet You are among us, O Lord, and we are called by Your name. Do not leave us!”

Although our sins testify(A) against us,
    do something, Lord, for the sake of your name.(B)

You are among(I) us, Lord,
    and we bear your name;(J)
    do not forsake(K) us!
