Let us amend for the better in those things in which we have sinned through ignorance;

Hearken, O Lord, and have mercy: for we have sinned against thee.

Help us, O God of our salvation, and for the honour[glory] of thy name deliver us. (Psalm 79:9a)

Alternate verses:
We have sinned like our fathers, we have acted unjustly and done wrong. (Psalm 106:6)
Remember, O man, that thou art dust, and to dust thou shalt return. (Psalm 3:19)
