“Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; Thou slanderest thine own mother’s son. ”
“You sit and speak against your brother. You slander your own mother's son.”
“You plot against your brother; you slander your own brother.”
“Deal favourably, O Lord, in thy good will with Sion; that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.”
“You say evil of your brother; you make false statements against your mother's son.”
“Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother’s son.”
O Lord, you will open my lips, and my mouth will announce your praise.
For if you had desired sacrifice, I would certainly have given it, but with holocausts, you will not be delighted.
A crushed spirit is a sacrifice to God. A contrite and humbled heart, O God, you will not spurn.
Act kindly, Lord, in your good will toward Zion, so that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.
Then you will accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations, and holocausts. Then they will lay calves upon your altar.
