Chapter 64
Isai | NETtext | 64:1 | If only you would tear apart the sky and come down! The mountains would tremble before you! | |
Isai | NETtext | 64:2 | As when fire ignites dry wood, or fire makes water boil, let your adversaries know who you are, and may the nations shake at your presence! | |
Isai | NETtext | 64:3 | When you performed awesome deeds that took us by surprise, you came down, and the mountains trembled before you. | |
Isai | NETtext | 64:4 | Since ancient times no one has heard or perceived, no eye has seen any God besides you, who intervenes for those who wait for him. | |
Isai | NETtext | 64:5 | You assist those who delight in doing what is right, who observe your commandments. Look, you were angry because we violated them continually. How then can we be saved? | |
Isai | NETtext | 64:6 | We are all like one who is unclean, all our so-called righteous acts are like a menstrual rag in your sight. We all wither like a leaf; our sins carry us away like the wind. | |
Isai | NETtext | 64:7 | No one invokes your name, or makes an effort to take hold of you. For you have rejected us and handed us over to our own sins. | |
Isai | NETtext | 64:8 | Yet, LORD, you are our father. We are the clay, and you are our potter; we are all the product of your labor. | |
Isai | NETtext | 64:9 | LORD, do not be too angry! Do not hold our sins against us continually! Take a good look at your people, at all of us! | |
Isai | NETtext | 64:10 | Your chosen cities have become a desert; Zion has become a desert, Jerusalem is a desolate ruin. | |
Isai | NETtext | 64:11 | Our holy temple, our pride and joy, the place where our ancestors praised you, has been burned with fire; all our prized possessions have been destroyed. | |
