In my alarm I said,
‘I am cut off from your sight!’
Yet you heard my cry for mercy
when I called to you for help.
When I kept silent,
my bones wasted away
through my groaning all day long.
For I know my transgressions,
and my sin is always before me.
I have swept away your offences like a cloud,
your sins like the morning mist.
Return to me,
for I have redeemed you.’
But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
and by his wounds we are healed.
