⁵ I said, “I beseech You, O Lord God of heaven, ^(A)the great and awesome God, ^(B)who preserves the covenant and lovingkindness for those who love Him and keep His commandments, ^6 (C)let Your ear now be attentive and Your eyes open to hear the prayer of Your servant which I am praying before You now, day and night, on behalf of the sons of Israel Your servants, ^(D)confessing the sins of the sons of Israel which we have sinned against You; ^(E)I and my father’s house have sinned. ^7 (F)We have acted very corruptly against You and have not kept the commandments, nor the statutes, nor the ordinances ^(G)which You commanded Your servant Moses.
