4 Then everyone who atrembled at the words of the God of Israel assembled to me, because of the transgression of those who had been carried away captive, and I sat astonished until the bevening sacrifice.
5 At the evening sacrifice I arose from my fasting; and having torn my garment and my robe, I fell on my knees and aspread out my hands to the Lord my God.
6 And I said: “O my God, I am too aashamed and humiliated to lift up my face to You, my God; for bour iniquities have risen higher than our heads, and our guilt has cgrown up to the heavens.
7 Since the days of our fathers to this day awe have been very guilty, and for our iniquities bwe, our kings, and our priests have been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the csword, to captivity, to plunder, and to dhumiliation, as it is this day.
8 And now for a little while grace has been shown from the Lord our God, to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a peg in His holy place, that our God may aenlighten our eyes and give us a measure of revival in our bondage.
9 aFor we were slaves. bYet our God did not forsake us in our bondage; but cHe extended mercy to us in the sight of the kings of Persia, to revive us, to repair the house of our God, to rebuild its ruins, and to give us da wall in Judah and Jerusalem.
