我雖為義、亦不敢答、惟祈於鞫我者而已、

我雖有義、亦不敢答之、祗哀求鞫我之主、

Though I were innocent, I could not answer him; I could only plead with my Judge for mercy.

Even if I hadn’t done anything wrong, I couldn’t answer him. I could only beg my Judge to have mercy on me.

Though I am in the right, I cannot answer him; I must appeal for mercy to my accuser.

Even if I were right, I would have no defense. I could only plead for mercy.

Even if I were in the right, I could not answer. I could only beg my Judge for mercy.

For though I were right, I could not answer; I would have to implore the mercy of my Judge.

For though I were righteous, I could not answer Him; I would beg mercy of my Judge.

Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer; I would make supplication to my judge.

Whom, though I were righteous,[ yet] would I not answer,[ but] I would make supplication to my judge.

Although I am innocent, I could not answer him; I could only plead with my judge for mercy.

Though I were righteous, yet I wouldn’t answer him. I would make supplication to my judge.

If I am wicked, woe to me! And even if I am righteous, I cannot lift up my head. I am filled with shame and aware of my affliction.

But if you earnestly seek God and ask the Almighty for mercy,

However, if I were you, I would appeal to God and would present my case to Him.

I will say to God:“ Do not declare me guilty! Let me know why You prosecute me.

You will pray to Him, and He will hear you, and you will fulfill your vows.

Listen, my God, and hear. Open Your eyes and see our desolations and the city called by Your name. For we are not presenting our petitions before You based on our righteous acts, but based on Your abundant compassion.

when He was reviled, He did not revile in return; when He was suffering, He did not threaten but entrusted Himself to the One who judges justly.

whatever prayer or petition anyone from Your people Israel might have— each man knowing his own afflictions and spreading out his hands toward this temple—may You hear in heaven, Your dwelling place, and may You forgive, act, and repay the man, according to all his ways, since You know his heart, for You alone know every human heart,

Suppose someone says to God,“ I have endured my punishment; I will no longer act wickedly.Teach me what I cannot see; if I have done wrong, I won’t do it again.”

He prayed to Him, so He heard his petition and granted his request, and brought him back to Jerusalem, to his kingdom. So Manasseh came to know that Yahweh is God.

Then an upright man could reason with Him, and I would escape from my Judge forever.

For I am not conscious of anything against myself, but I am not justified by this. The One who evaluates me is the Lord.

So I turned my attention to the Lord God to seek Him by prayer and petitions, with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes.

They will come weeping, but I will bring them back with consolation. I will lead them to wadis filled with water by a smooth way where they will not stumble, for I am Israel’s Father, and Ephraim is My firstborn.
