Baruch 3:3-7 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

3. For thou remainest for ever, and shall we perish everlastingly?

4. O Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, hear now the prayer of the dead of Israel, and of their children, that have sinned before thee, and have not hearkened to the voice of the Lord their God, wherefore evils have cleaved fast to us.

5. Remember not the iniquities of our fathers, but think upon thy hand, and upon thy name at this time:

6. For thou art the Lord our God, and we will praise thee, O Lord:

7. Because for this end thou hast put thy fear in our hearts, to the intent that we should call upon thy name, and praise thee in our captivity, for we are converted from the iniquity of our fathers, who sinned before thee.
