Von den Tagen unserer Väter an sind wir in großer Schuld gewesen bis auf diesen Tag; und um unserer Missetaten willen sind wir, wir, unsere Könige, unsere Priester, der Hand der Könige der Länder übergeben worden, dem Schwerte, der Gefangenschaft und dem Raube und der Beschämung des Angesichts, wie es an diesem Tage ist.

Desde os dias de nossos pais até o dia de hoje estamos em grande culpa; e por nossas perversidades nós, nossos reis, e nossos sacerdotes, somos entregues nas mãos dos reis das terras, à espada, ao cativeiro, ao roubo, e à vergonha de rosto, como se vê hoje.

📖 Ezra 9:7 in Context
5And at the evening sacrifice I arose up from my heaviness; and having rent my garment and my mantle, I fell upon my knees, and spread out my hands unto the Lord my God,
6And said, O my God, I am ashamed and blush to lift up my face to thee, my God: for our iniquities are increased over our head, and our trespass is grown up unto the heavens.
7Since the days of our fathers have we been in a great trespass unto this day; and for our iniquities have we, our kings, and our priests, been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, and to a spoil, and to confusion of face, as it is this day.
8And now for a little space grace hath been shewed from the Lord our God, to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a nail in his holy place, that our God may lighten our eyes, and give us a little reviving in our bondage.
9For we were bondmen; yet our God hath not forsaken us in our bondage, but hath extended mercy unto us in the sight of the kings of Persia, to give us a reviving, to set up the house of our God, and to repair the desolations thereof, and to give us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem.
