Baruch 1:17

17 because we have sinned before the Lord.

Baruch 1:17 In-Context

15 And you shall say: The Lord our God is in the right, but there is open shame on us today, on the people of Judah, on the inhabitants of Jerusalem,

16 and on our kings, our rulers, our priests, our prophets, and our ancestors,

17 because we have sinned before the Lord.

18 We have disobeyed him, and have not heeded the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in the statutes of the Lord that he set before us.

19 From the time when the Lord brought our ancestors out of the land of Egypt until today, we have been disobedient to the Lord our God, and we have been negligent, in not heeding his voice.
