20 We acknowledge our wickedness, O Lord,
    the iniquity of our ancestors,
    for we have sinned against you.
21 Do not spurn us, for your name’s sake;
    do not dishonour your glorious throne;
    remember and do not break your covenant with us.

    Or can the heavens give showers?

    We set our hope on you,
    for it is you who do all this.
