Ezra 9:13

Context

9:13 “Everything that has happened to us has come about because of our wicked actions and our great guilt. Even so, our God, you have exercised restraint 1  toward our iniquities and have given us a remnant such as this.

Ezra 9:15

Context
9:15 O Lord God of Israel, you are righteous, for we are left as a remnant this day. Indeed, we stand before you in our guilt. However, because of this guilt 2  no one can really stand before you.”

1 tn Heb “held back downwards from”; KJV “hast punished us less than our iniquities deserve” (NIV, NRSV, NLT all similar).

2 tn Heb “this”; the referent (the guilt mentioned previously) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
