    the great, mighty, and awesome God,
        who keeps the covenant and gracious love,
don’t let all of the difficulties seem trifling to you,

upon our leaders, upon our priests,
    upon our prophets, upon our ancestors,

    because you have acted faithfully
        while we have practiced evil.

    nor our leaders, nor our priests
        nor our ancestors have practiced your Law
or paid attention to your commands and warnings
    by which you admonished them.
