23 Surely the idolatrous commotion on the hills(A)
    and mountains is a deception;
surely in the Lord our God
    is the salvation(B) of Israel.
24 From our youth shameful(C) gods have consumed
    the fruits of our ancestors’ labor—
their flocks and herds,
    their sons and daughters.
25 Let us lie down in our shame,(D)
    and let our disgrace cover us.
We have sinned(E) against the Lord our God,
    both we and our ancestors;(F)
from our youth(G) till this day
    we have not obeyed(H) the Lord our God.”
