open{H6491}{(H8798)} thine eyes{H5869}, and behold{H7200}{(H8798)} our desolations{H8074}{(H8802)}, and the city{H5892} which is called{H7121}{(H8738)} by thy name{H8034}: for we do not present{H5307}{(H8688)} our supplications{H8469} before{H6440} thee for our righteousnesses{H6666}, but for thy great{H7227} mercies{H7356}. 19 O Lord{H136}, hear{H8085}{(H8798)}; O Lord{H136}, forgive{H5545}{(H8798)}; O Lord{H136}, hearken{H7181}{(H8685)} and do{H6213}{(H8798)}; defer{H309}{(H8762)} not{H408}, for thine own sake, O my God{H430}: for thy city{H5892} and thy people{H5971} are called{H7121}{(H8738)} by thy name{H8034}. 20 And whiles I was speaking{H1696}{(H8764)}, and praying{H6419}{(H8693)}, and confessing{H3034}{(H8693)} my sin{H2403} and the sin{H2403} of my people{H5971} Israel{H3478}, and presenting{H5307}{(H8688)} my supplication{H8467} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068} my God{H430} for the holy{H6944} mountain{H2022} of my God{H430};
