John Trapp on Ezra 9:15

Verſe 15. O Lord God of Iſrael] So called, becauſe he is their portion, they His, Deut. 32.9. He had avouched them for his: and they him interchangeably, Deut. 26.17, 18. Seneca could ſay, that the baſeſt people (meaning the Jewes) gave Lawes unto all the World: that is, had the true God, Creatour of all, for their God.

Thou art righteous] In all thy judgments inflicted upon us: or, thou art faithful and true in thy promiſes: but we have forfeited thy favour, and deſerved deſtruction.

Behold we are before thee in our treſpaſſes] Or guiltineſſes, which is that iniquity of ſin (as David calleth it, Pſal. 32.5.) whereby the ſinner is bound over to condigne puniſhment.

For we cannot ſtand before thee] But muſt needs causâ cadere, being ſelf condemned; and ſuch as muſt needs ſubſcribe to thy perfect juſtice in our own utter deſtruction.
