Baruch 2:5-8
-
5 Thus we were cast down, and not exalted, because we have sinned against the Lord our God, and have not been obedient unto his voice.
-
6 To the Lord our God appertaineth righteousness: but unto us and to our fathers open shame, as appeareth this day.
-
7 For all these plagues are come upon us, which the Lord hath pronounced against us
-
8 Yet have we not prayed before the Lord, that we might turn every one from the imaginations of his wicked heart.
