Konteks 9:13 Just as it is written in the law of Moses, so all this calamity has come on us. Still we have not tried to pacify1 the LORD our God by turning back from our sin and by seeking wisdom2 from your reliable moral standards.3
[9:13]3tnHeb “by your truth.” The Hebrew term does not refer here to abstract truth, however, but to the reliable moral guidance found in the covenant law. See vv 10-11.
