You welcome the one who joyfully does what is right;
they remember You in Your ways.
But we have sinned, and You were angry.
How can we be saved if we remain in our sins?^(a)

All of us have become like something unclean,
and all our righteous acts are like a polluted^(b) garment;^(A)
all of us wither like a leaf,^(B)
and our iniquities^(C) carry us away like the wind.

No one calls on Your name,
striving to take hold of You.
For You have hidden Your face from us^(D)
and made us melt because of^(c)^(d) our iniquity.
