24From childhood we have watched

as everything our ancestors worked for—

their flocks and herds, their sons and daughters—

was squandered on a delusion.

25Let us now lie down in shame

and cover ourselves with dishonor,

for we and our ancestors have sinned

against the Lord our God.

From our childhood to this day

we have never obeyed him.”

ESVEnglish Standard Version

“But from our youth the shameful thing has devoured all for which our fathers labored, their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters. Let us lie down in our shame, and let our dishonor cover us. For we have sinned against the Lord our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even to this day, and we have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God.”

NIVNew International Version (2011)

From our youth shameful gods have consumed

the fruits of our ancestors’ labor—

their flocks and herds,

their sons and daughters.

Let us lie down in our shame,

and let our disgrace cover us.

We have sinned against the Lord our God,

both we and our ancestors;

from our youth till this day

we have not obeyed the Lord our God.”

CSBChristian Standard Bible

From the time of our youth

the shameful one has consumed

what our ancestors have worked for—

their flocks and their herds,

their sons and their daughters.

Let us lie down in our shame;

let our disgrace cover us.

We have sinned against the Lord our God,

both we and our ancestors,

from the time of our youth even to this day.

We have not obeyed the Lord our God.”

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

But the shameful thing has devoured

the labor of our ancestors from our youth,

their flocks, and their cattle,

their sons and their daughters.

Let us lie down in our shame,

and let our disgrace cover us.

For against Yahweh our God we have sinned,

we and our ancestors,

from our youth and until this day.

and we have not obeyed the voice of Yahweh our God.’

KJV 1900King James Version

For shame hath devoured the labour of our fathers from our youth; their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters. We lie down in our shame, and our confusion covereth us: for we have sinned against the Lord our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even unto this day, and have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God.
