When a righteous man turns from his godliness and commits iniquity, he will die for it.

Return, O Israel, to the Lord your God, for your sin has been your downfall! ¹ 

You may say, ¹  ‘God stores up a man’s ²  punishment for his children!’ ³  Instead let him repay ⁴  the man himself ⁵  so that ⁶  he may know it!

They will bear their punishment; ¹  the punishment of the one who sought an oracle will be the same as the punishment of the prophet who gave it ² 

Then I confessed my sin; I no longer covered up my wrongdoing. I said, “I will confess ¹  my rebellious acts to the Lord.” And then you forgave my sins. ²  (Selah)

I was blameless before him; I kept myself from sinning. ¹ 

For he ¹  knows deceitful ²  men; when he sees evil, will he not ³  consider it? ⁴ 

He goes about ¹  in company ²  with evildoers, he goes along ³  with wicked men. ⁴ 

You ¹  build Zion through bloody crimes, ²  Jerusalem ³  through unjust violence.

Please forgive ¹  the iniquity of this people according to your great loyal love, ²  just as you have forgiven this people from Egypt even until now.”

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

May his ancestors’ ¹  sins be remembered by the Lord! May his mother’s sin not be forgotten! ² 

Their survivors will escape to the mountains and become like doves of the valleys; all of them will moan – each one for his iniquity.

“Also for your part lie on your left side and place the iniquity ¹  of the house of Israel on it. For the number of days you lie on your side you will bear their iniquity.

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 

The customer will no longer pay the seller ¹  while both parties are alive, for the vision against their whole crowd ²  will not be revoked. Each person, for his iniquity, ³  will fail to preserve his life.

His mouth is full of curses and deceptive, harmful words; ¹  his tongue injures and destroys. ² 

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

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

Day and night they walk around on its walls, ¹  while wickedness and destruction ²  are within it.
