Is 63:12 Who caused His glorious arm to go at the right hand of Moses, Who divided the waters before them to make for Himself an everlasting name,
Is 63:13 Who led them through the depths? Like the horse in the wilderness, they did not stumble;
Is 63:14 As the cattle which go down into the valley, The Spirit of the LORD gave them rest. So You led Your people, To make for Yourself a glorious name.
Is 63:15 ¶ Look down from heaven and see from Your holy and glorious habitation; Where are Your zeal and Your mighty deeds? The stirrings of Your heart and Your compassion are restrained toward me.
Is 63:16 For You are our Father, though Abraham does not know us And Israel does not recognize us. You, O LORD, are our Father, Our Redeemer from of old is Your name.
Is 63:17 Why, O LORD, do You cause us to stray from Your ways And harden our heart from fearing You? Return for the sake of Your servants, the tribes of Your heritage.
Is 63:18 Your holy people possessed Your sanctuary for a little while, Our adversaries have trodden it down.
Is 63:19 We have become like those over whom You have never ruled, Like those who were not called by Your name.
Is 64:1 Oh, that You would rend the heavens and come down, That the mountains might quake at Your presence--
Is 64:2 As fire kindles the brushwood, as fire causes water to boil-- To make Your name known to Your adversaries, That the nations may tremble at Your presence!
Is 64:3 When You did awesome things which we did not expect, You came down, the mountains quaked at Your presence.
Is 64:4 For from days of old they have not heard or perceived by ear, Nor has the eye seen a God besides You, Who acts in behalf of the one who waits for Him.
Is 64:5 You meet him who rejoices in doing righteousness, Who remembers You in Your ways. Behold, You were angry, for we sinned, We continued in them a long time; And shall we be saved?
Is 64:6 For all of us have become like one who is unclean, And all our righteous deeds are like a filthy garment; And all of us wither like a leaf, And our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.
Is 64:7 There is no one who calls on Your name, Who arouses himself to take hold of You; For You have hidden Your face from us And have delivered us into the power of our iniquities.
Is 64:8 ¶ But now, O LORD, You are our Father, We are the clay, and You our potter; And all of us are the work of Your hand.
Is 64:9 Do not be angry beyond measure, O LORD, Nor remember iniquity forever; Behold, look now, all of us are Your people.
Is 64:10 Your holy cities have become a wilderness, Zion has become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
Is 64:11 Our holy and beautiful house, Where our fathers praised You, Has been burned by fire; And all our precious things have become a ruin.
Is 64:12 Will You restrain Yourself at these things, O LORD? Will You keep silent and afflict us beyond measure?
