Our people of long ago sinned. And they are now dead. We are being punished because of their sins.

Our fathers sinned, and are no more; and we bear their iniquities.

Our ancestors sinned; they no longer exist, but we bear their punishment.

Our fathers sinned, and are gone; It is we who have been burdened with the punishment for their wrongdoings.

Our fathers sinned and are no more, But we bear their iniquities.

Our fathers sinned, and are not; And we have borne their iniquities.

But you have behaved more wickedly than your ancestors. See how all of you are following the stubbornness of your evil hearts instead of obeying me.

“ What do you people mean by quoting this proverb about the land of Israel:“‘ The parents eat sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge’?

You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,

“ In those days people will no longer say,‘ The parents have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge.’

We acknowledge our wickedness, Lord, and the guilt of our ancestors; we have indeed sinned against you.

Go ahead, then, and complete what your ancestors started!“ You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell?Therefore I am sending you prophets and sages and teachers. Some of them you will kill and crucify; others you will flog in your synagogues and pursue from town to town.And so upon you will come all the righteous blood that has been shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah son of Berekiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar.Truly I tell you, all this will come on this generation.

Where are your ancestors now? And the prophets, do they live forever?

This is what the Lord says:“ A voice is heard in Ramah, mourning and great weeping, Rachel weeping for her children and refusing to be comforted, because they are no more.”

Why do you not pardon my offenses and forgive my sins? For I will soon lie down in the dust; you will search for me, but I will be no more.”

The eye that now sees me will see me no longer; you will look for me, but I will be no more.

Their father Jacob said to them,“ You have deprived me of my children. Joseph is no more and Simeon is no more, and now you want to take Benjamin. Everything is against me!”
