Yet, O Lord, You are our Father;
We are the clay, and You our Potter,
And we all are the work of Your hand.

Do not be angry beyond measure, O Lord,
Do not remember our wickedness [our sin, our injustice, our wrongdoing] forever.

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