ת (Tav) O people of Zion, ¹  your punishment ²  will come to an end; ³  he will not prolong your exile. ⁴  But, O people of Edom, ⁵  he will punish ⁶  your sin ⁷  and reveal ⁸  your offenses!

I have determined that the number of the years of their iniquity are to be the number of days ¹  for you – 390 days. ²  So bear the iniquity of the house of Israel. ³ 

Then Cain said to the Lord, “My punishment ¹  is too great to endure! ² 

But if he does not wash his clothes ¹  and does not bathe his body, he will bear his punishment for iniquity.’” ² 

How many are my ¹  iniquities and sins? Show me my transgression and my sin. ² 

For you write down ¹  bitter things against me and cause me to inherit the sins of my youth. ² 

Your sin inspires ¹  your mouth; you choose the language ²  of the crafty. ³ 

For I would have committed ¹  a shameful act, ²  an iniquity to be judged. ³ 

then this ¹  also would be iniquity to be judged, ²  for I would have been false ³  to God above.

if ¹  I have covered my transgressions as men do, ²  by hiding ³  iniquity in my heart, ⁴ 

For the sake of your reputation, ¹  O Lord, forgive my sin, because it is great. ² 

for he is too proud to recognize and give up his sin. ¹ 

Why should I be afraid in times of trouble, ¹  when the sinful deeds of deceptive men threaten to overwhelm me? ² 

Wash away my wrongdoing! ¹  Cleanse me of my sin! ² 

Look, I was guilty of sin from birth, a sinner the moment my mother conceived me. ¹ 

Hide your face ¹  from my sins! Wipe away ²  all my guilt!

Though I have done nothing wrong, ¹  they are anxious to attack. ²  Spring into action and help me! Take notice of me! ³ 

Our record of sins overwhelms me, ¹  but you forgive ²  our acts of rebellion.

You pardoned ¹  the wrongdoing of your people; you forgave ²  all their sin. (Selah)

He does not deal with us as our sins deserve; ¹  he does not repay us as our misdeeds deserve. ²
