Iniquities overwhelm me;
only you can atone for our rebellions.(A)
How happy is the one you choose
and bring near to live in your courts!
We will be satisfied with the goodness of your house,(B)
the holiness of your temple.[a](C)

You answer us in righteousness,
with awe-inspiring works,
God of our salvation,
the hope of all the ends of the earth
and of the distant seas.(D)
