7We are filled with it. It has been like that ever since the days of our people who lived long ago.

“Kings of other countries have killed many of us and our kings and priests with their swords. They’ve forced others to leave their own land. They’ve taken them away as prisoners. They’ve robbed others. They’ve made still others feel ashamed and dishonored.

“All of those things have happened to us because we’ve committed so many sins. And that’s how things still are to this very day.
