[1] נַחְנוּ פָשַׁעְנוּ וּמָרִינוּ אַתָּה לֹא סָלָחְתָּ ס [3] It occurs to me that this is the situation understood in Hebrews 10:26 ff - Exile is the result of sin after reaching the promised land.

The extenuating circumstances may not be evident even after a whole kingdom's failure. [2] 
Note that it is we ourselves who have sinned and have disobeyed You have not forgiven
