5 I said,(A)
Yahweh, the God of heaven, the great and awe-inspiring God who keeps His gracious covenant with those who love Him(B) and keep His commands,(C) 6 let Your eyes be open and Your ears be attentive(D) to hear Your servant’s prayer that I now pray to You day and night(E) for Your servants, the Israelites. I confess the sins[a] we have committed against You. Both I and my father’s house have sinned.(F) 7 We have acted corruptly toward You and have not kept the commands, statutes, and ordinances You gave Your servant Moses.(G)
