And why dost thou not pardon my transgression, and take away mine iniquity? For now shall I lie down in the dust; And thou wilt seek me diligently, but I shall not be.

And why do you not take away my sin, and let my wrongdoing be ended? for now I go down to the dust, and you will be searching for me with care, but I will be gone.

Και δια τι δεν συγχωρεις την παραβασιν μου και αφαιρεις την ανομιαν μου; διοτι μετ' ολιγον θελω κοιμασθαι εν τω χωματι· και το πρωι θελεις με ζητησει, και δεν θελω υπαρχει.

And why dost thou not pardon my transgression, and take away mine iniquity? for now shall I sleep in the dust; and thou shalt seek me in the morning, but I shall not be.
