5You meet him who rejoices in doing righteousness,
         Who remembers You in Your ways.
         Behold, You were angry, for we sinned,
         We continued in them a long time;
         And shall we be saved?

6For all of us have become like one who is unclean,
         And all our righteous deeds are like a filthy garment;
         And all of us wither like a leaf,
         And our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.

7There is no one who calls on Your name,
         Who arouses himself to take hold of You;
         For You have hidden Your face from us
         And have delivered us into the power of our iniquities.

8But now, O LORD, You are our Father,
         We are the clay, and You our potter;
         And all of us are the work of Your hand.

9Do not be angry beyond measure, O LORD,
         Nor remember iniquity forever;
         Behold, look now, all of us are Your people.

10Your holy cities have become a wilderness,
         Zion has become a wilderness,
         Jerusalem a desolation.

11Our holy and beautiful house,
         Where our fathers praised You,
         Has been burned by fire;
         And all our precious things have become a ruin.

12Will You restrain Yourself at these things, O LORD?
         Will You keep silent and afflict us beyond measure?
