5 and said, I beseech thee, O Yahweh God of the heavens, the great and fearful GOD, keeping the covenant and lovingkindness for them who love him and keep his commandments:

6 Let, I pray thee, thine ears be attentive and thine eyes open to hearken unto the prayer of thy servant -which, I, am praying before thee now, day and night, for the sons of Israel, thy servants, -and making confession concerning the sins of the sons of Israel, which we have committed against thee, both I and the house of my father, have sinned.

7 We have dealt, very corruptly, against thee, and have not kept the commandments, nor the statutes nor the regulations, which thou didst command Moses thy servant.
