English.png English translation

I have sinned beyond the number
of the sands of the sea,
and my sins have multiplied:
and I am not worthy to view
the height of heaven,
for the multitude of my iniquity:
 because I have provoked your wrath,
 and done evil in your sight.

Because I know my iniquity,
and my transgression
is always against me,
I have sinned against you alone,
 because I have provoked your wrath,
 and done evil in your sight.
