11 All of us growl like bears,
And (A)moan sadly like doves;
We hope for (B)justice, but there is none;
For salvation, but it is far from us.
12 For our (C)wrongful acts have multiplied before You,
And our (D)sins have testified against us;
For our wrongful acts are with us,
And [a]we know our wrongdoings:
13 [b]Offending and (E)denying the Lord,
And turning away from our God,
Speaking (F)oppression and revolt,
Conceiving and (G)uttering lying words from the heart.
