24 From our youth shameful(A) gods have consumed
the fruits of our ancestors’ labor—

25 Let us lie down in our shame,(B)
and let our disgrace cover us.
We have sinned(C) against the Lord our God,
both we and our ancestors;(D)
from our youth(E) till this day
we have not obeyed(F) the Lord our God.”
