6 We have sinned, even as our ancestors did;

we have done wrong and acted wickedly.

7 When our ancestors were in Egypt,

they gave no thought to your miracles;

they did not remember your many kindnesses,

and they rebelled by the sea, the Red Sea.

6 We have sinned with our fathers,

We have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.

7 Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt;

They remembered not the multitude of thy mercies;

But provoked him at the sea, even at the Red sea.

6 Like our ancestors, we have sinned.

We have done wrong! We have acted wickedly!

7 Our ancestors in Egypt

were not impressed by the Lord’s miraculous deeds.

They soon forgot his many acts of kindness to them.

Instead, they rebelled against him at the Red Sea.

6 We have sinned with our fathers,

We have committed iniquity,

We have done wickedly.

7 Our fathers in Egypt did not understand Your wonders;

They did not remember the multitude of Your mercies,

But rebelled by the sea—the Red Sea.

6 We have sinned just as our ancestors did.

We have done wrong; we have done evil.

7 Our ancestors in Egypt

did not learn from your miracles.

They did not remember all your kindnesses,

so they turned against you at the Red Sea.

6 We have sinned with our fathers,

We have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.

7 Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt;

They remembered not the multitude of thy lovingkindnesses,

But were rebellious at the sea, even at the Red Sea.

6 We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly. 7 Our fathers in Egypt considered not thy wondrous works; they remembered not the multitude of thy loving-kindnesses; but they rebelled at the sea, at the Red Sea.

6 We have sinned, and so did our ancestors. 

We have done wrong. 

We are guilty. 

7 When our ancestors were in Egypt, 

they gave no thought to your miracles. 

They did not remember your numerous acts of mercy, 

so they rebelled at the sea, the Red Sea. 

6 Both we and our fathers have sinned;

we have done wrong and have acted wickedly.

7 Our fathers in Egypt did not grasp

the significance of Your wonderful works

or remember Your many acts of faithful love;

instead, they rebelled by the sea—the Red Sea.

6 Both we and our ancestors have sinned;

we have committed iniquity, have done wickedly.

7 Our ancestors, when they were in Egypt,

did not consider your wonderful works;

they did not remember the abundance of your steadfast love,

but rebelled against the Most High at the Red Sea.

6 We have sinned along with our ancestors.

We have committed iniquity; we have incurred guilt.

7 Our ancestors in Egypt did not understand your wonderful works.

They did not remember your many acts of loyal love,

and so they rebelled by the sea at the Red Sea.

6 We have sinned, just as our people of long ago did.

We too have done what is evil and wrong.

7 When our people were in Egypt,

they forgot about the Lord’s miracles.

They didn’t remember his many kind acts.

At the Red Sea they refused to obey him.

6 We have sinned like our fathers,

We have committed iniquity, we have behaved wickedly.

7 Our fathers in Egypt did not understand Your wonders;

They did not remember Your abundant kindnesses,

But rebelled by the sea, at the Red Sea.
