⁶ We have not given ear to your servants the prophets, who said words in your name to our kings and our rulers and our fathers and all the people of the land.

⁶ Let your ear now take note and let your eyes be open, so that you may give ear to the prayer of your servant, which I make before you at this time, day and night, for the children of Israel, your servants, while I put before you the sins of the children of Israel, which we have done against you: truly, I and my father's people are sinners.
