See how you translated this in [26:18](../26/18.md). If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of sins, it can be expressed as an action. Or you could use another way that is natural in your language to express wrongdoing. Alternate translation: [for your wrongdoing] or [for your evil actions]
