You welcome the one who joyfully does what is right;
they remember you in your ways.
But we have sinned, and you were angry.
How can we be saved if we remain in our sins?[a]
All of us have become like something unclean,
and all our righteous acts are like a polluted[b] garment;(A)
all of us wither like a leaf,(B)
and our iniquities(C) carry us away like the wind.

striving to take hold of you.
For you have hidden your face from us(D)
and made us melt because of[c][d] our iniquity.
