In The King James Version

In Context

5We have sinned and have done what is wrong. We have acted wickedly and we have rebelled, turning aside from your commands and decrees.

7To you, Lord, belongs righteousness. To us today, however, belongs shame on our faces—for the people of Judah and those who live in Jerusalem, and to all Israel. This includes those who are near and those who are far away in all the lands where you scattered them. This is because of the great treachery that we committed against you.
