Machzor Yom Kippur Ashkenaz
[Nevertheless], You have set man apart from the beginning, and recognized him [as worthy] to stand before You. For who could tell You what You should do, and even if he be righteous, what [benefit] does he give You? And You, Adonoy, our God, gave us with love, this Day of Atonement to be the end [of sin] forgiveness, and pardon for all our iniquities, so that we may refrain from the injustice of our hands; and return to You, to fulfill the statutes of Your will with a perfect heart. And You in Your abundant mercy, have compassion on us, for You do not desire the destruction of the world; as it is stated: “Seek Adonoy while He may be found, call to Him while He is near.”2Yeshaya 55:6 And it is said: “Let the wicked abandon his way, and the man of iniquity his thoughts, and let him return to Adonoy and He will have compassion on him, and to our God, for He pardons abundantly.”3Yeshaya 55:7 And You, God of pardon, are gracious and compassionate, slow to anger, abundant in kindness and truth, and abounding in goodness. You want the repentance of the wicked, and do not desire their death. As it is stated: “Say to them, as truly as I live, declares the Master, Adonoy, I have no desire for the death of the wicked, but only that the wicked return from his [evil] path and live; And it is said, “Return, return, from your evil ways, why should you die House of Yisrael?”4Yechezkel 33:11 And it is said, “Do I desire the death of the wicked? declares the Master, Adonoy; [I desire rather]that he return from his [evil] way and live.”5Yechezkel 18:23 And it is said: “For I do not desire the death of him who deserves death, declares the Master, Adonoy; [therefore] return and live.”6Yechezkel 18:32 For You are the Pardoner of Yisrael, and the Forgiver of the tribes of Yeshurun in every generation; and besides You we have no King Who forgives and pardons only You.
