64 | Isaiah | ||
1 | O that you would rend the heavens and come down, that the mountains might quake at your presence - | ||
2 | as when fire kindles brushwood and the fire causes water to boil - to make your name known to your adversaries, and that the nations might tremble at your presence! | ||
3 | From of old no one has heard or perceived by the ear, no eye has seen a God besides you, who works for those who wait for him. | ||
4 | You meet him that joyfully works righteousness, those that remember you in your ways. Behold, you were angry, and we sinned; in our sins we have been a long time, and shall we be saved? | ||
5 | You meet him that joyfully works righteousness, those that remember you in your ways. Behold, you were angry, and we sinned; in our sins we have been a long time, and shall we be saved? | ||
6 | There is no one that calls upon your name, that bestirs himself to take hold of you; for you have hid your face from us, and have delivered us into the hand of our iniquities. | ||
7 | There is no one that calls upon your name, that bestirs himself to take hold of you; for you have hid your face from us, and have delivered us into the hand of our iniquities. | ||
8 | Yet, O Yahweh, you are our father; we are the clay, and you are our potter; we are the work of your hand. | ||
9 | Be not exceedingly angry, O Yahweh, and remember not iniquity for ever. Behold, consider, we are all your people. | ||
10 | Your holy cities have become a wilderness, Zion has become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation. | ||
11 | Our holy and beautiful house, where our fathers praised you, has been burned by fire, and all our pleasant places have become ruins. | ||
12 | Will you restrain yourself at these things, O Yahweh? Wilt you keep silent, and afflict us sorely? | ||
