Isa.|64:1|-|Oh that You would rend the |a|heavens, that You would |1|come down—That the mountains would |b|shake at Your presence—
Isa.|64:2|-|Like fire that kindles brushwood,Like fire that causes water to boil,
To make Your name known to Your adversaries,That the nations may tremble at Your presence!
Isa.|64:3|-|When You did awesome things that we did not expect,You came down, the mountains shook at Your presence.
Isa.|64:4|-|For from of old, men have not |a|heard,Nor perceived with the ear,
Neither has eye seen a God besides You,Who acts for him who |b|waits for Him.
Isa.|64:5|-|You meet him who rejoices and does |a|righteousness,Those who remember You in Your ways.
Yes, You were angry, for we sinned;We have been in them for a long time, and shall we be saved?
Isa.|64:6|-|For all of us became like him who is unclean,And all |a|our righteousnesses are like a |b|soiled garment;
And we all wither like a leaf,And our iniquities, like the wind, carry us away.
Isa.|64:7|-|And there is no one who |1a|calls upon Your name,Who stirs himself up to |b|lay hold of You;
For You have |c|hidden Your face from usAnd have |2|consumed us by our iniquities.
Isa.|64:8|-|But now, Jehovah, You are our |1a|Father;We are the |b|clay; and You, our Potter;
And all of us are the work of Your hand.
Isa.|64:9|-|Do not be angry to an extreme, O Jehovah,Neither remember iniquity forever;
Look now, we pray: We all are Your people.
Isa.|64:10|-|Your holy cities have become a wilderness;Zion is a wilderness,
|a|Jerusalem a desolation.
Isa.|64:11|-|Our holy and beautiful |a|house,Where our fathers praised You,
Is burned with fire;And all the things that we delighted in have become a ruin.
Isa.|64:12|-|Will You restrain Yourself from these, O Jehovah?Will You keep silent and afflict us to an extreme?
