‏ Ezra 9:6-7

6 saying:

“O my God, I am ashamed and blush to lift my face to you, my God, for our iniquities ^ahave risen higher than our heads, and our ^bguilt has ^cmounted up to the heavens. 7 ^dFrom the days of our fathers to this day we have been in great ^eguilt. And for our iniquities we, our kings, and our priests have been given into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, to plundering, ^fand to utter shame, as it is today.
