전도서 4:1의 Liturgy
וְשַׁ֣בְתִּֽי אֲנִ֗י וָאֶרְאֶה֙ אֶת־כָּל־הָ֣עֲשֻׁקִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר נַעֲשִׂ֖ים תַּ֣חַת הַשָּׁ֑מֶשׁ וְהִנֵּ֣ה ׀ דִּמְעַ֣ת הָעֲשֻׁקִ֗ים וְאֵ֤ין לָהֶם֙ מְנַחֵ֔ם וּמִיַּ֤ד עֹֽשְׁקֵיהֶם֙ כֹּ֔חַ וְאֵ֥ין לָהֶ֖ם מְנַחֵֽם׃
내가 돌이켜 해 아래서 행하는 모든 학대를 보았도다 오호라 학대받는 자가 눈물을 흘리되 저희에게 위로자가 없도다 저희를 학대하는 자의 손에는 권세가 있으나 저희에게는 위로자가 없도다
Selichot Edot HaMizrach
We have been guilty; we have eaten forbidden foods. We have been unfaithful; we have [neglected] your Torah. We have robbed, we have stolen; we have been proud. We have spoken slander and evil speech, we have spoken one [thing] in [our] mouth and [another] in [our] mind. We have caused others to be iniquitous; we conjured up bad thoughts during the day and came to the impurity of an emission at night. And we have caused others to do evil; we have gathered together for a sinful matter. We have been malicious; we have followed the lusts of our hearts and our eyes. We have extorted; we have coveted; we have desecrated Shabbats and Your holy festivals. We have joined with falsehood and deceit. We have given harmful advice without limit. We have deceived; we have become angry. We have mocked. We have rebelled; we have been insubordinate towards Your words; we have rebelled against the Kingdom of heaven; we have rebelled against the kingdom of the House of David; we have rejected the Temple – and we are requesting the three of them. We have provoked; we have committed adultery; we have vowed but not paid. We have strayed; we have been rebellious and disobedient. We have been iniquitous; we have transgressed positive commandments and negative commandments; we have transgressed against [laws, the punishments for which are] excision and the death penalties of the court; we have transgressed [not to] desecrate [God’s] name. We have sinned rebelliously; we have made the holy covenant defective. We have caused grief; we have pained father and mother. We have been stiff-necked; we have damaged the channels of bounty. We have been evil; we have been bad to the Heavens and to the creatures. We have destroyed; we have lied; we have destroyed seed for naught and created a destructive force to destroy – my heart, my heart, for their corpses; my innards, my innards for those they killed! Woe to the evildoer, for the recompenses of his hands will be done to him. We have committed abominations; we have gone astray; we have led others astray. And we have turned away from Your commandments and from Your good laws, and we have gained nothing from it. And You are the Righteous One in all [punishment] that has come upon us; for You have acted truthfully and we have acted evilly.
