Isaiah 64
64
1#Mic 1:3–4; Ps 68:8 Oh, that You would rend the heavens and come down,
that the mountains might shake at Your presence,
2#Ps 99:1; Jer 5:22 as when the melting fire burns,
as the fire causes the waters to boil,
to make Your name known to Your adversaries,
that the nations may tremble at Your presence!
3#Ps 66:3; 66:5 When You did awesome things for which we did not look,
You came down; the mountains quaked at Your presence.
4#Ps 31:19; Isa 25:9 For since the beginning of the world men have not heard,
nor perceived by ear,
neither has the eye seen a God besides You,
who acts for the one who waits for Him.
5#Ex 20:24 You meet him who rejoices in doing righteousness,
those who remember You in Your ways.
Indeed, You were angry, for we had sinned;
in our sins we remained a long time,
and shall we be saved?
6#Ps 90:5–6; Isa 6:5 But we all are as an unclean thing,
and all our righteousness is as filthy rags;
and we all fade as a leaf,
and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
7#Eze 22:30; Hos 7:7 There is no one who calls on Your name,
who stirs up himself to take hold of You;
for You have hidden Your face from us
and have consumed us because of our iniquities.
8#Isa 63:16; 29:16 But now, O Lord, You are our Father;
we are the clay, and You are our potter;
and we all are the work of Your hand.
9#Ps 74:1–2; 79:13 Do not be wrathful beyond measure, O Lord,
nor remember iniquity forever;
look upon us, we pray,
we all are Your people.
10#Isa 1:7 Your holy cities are a wilderness;
Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
11#2Ki 25:9; Ps 74:5–7 Our holy and beautiful house where our fathers praised You
is burned up with fire;
and all our precious things are laid waste.
12#Isa 42:14; Ps 74:10–11 Will You refrain Yourself from these things, O Lord?
Will You hold Your peace and afflict us beyond measure?

Isaiah 64
64
1Oh that you would tear the heavens,
that you would come down,
that the mountains might quake at your presence—
2as when fire kindles the brushwood,
and the fire causes the water to boil.
Make your name known to your adversaries,
that the nations may tremble at your presence!
3When you did awesome things which we didn’t look for,
you came down, and the mountains quaked at your presence.
4For from of old men have not heard,
nor perceived by the ear,
nor has the eye seen a God besides you,
who works for him who waits for him.
5You meet him who rejoices and does righteousness,
those who remember you in your ways.
Behold, you were angry, and we sinned.
We have been in sin for a long time.
Shall we be saved?
6For we have all become like one who is unclean,
and all our righteousness is like a polluted garment.
We all fade like a leaf;
and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.
7There is no one who calls on your name,
who stirs himself up to take hold of you;
for you have hidden your face from us,
and have consumed us by means of our iniquities.
8But now, Yahweh, you are our Father.
We are the clay and you our potter.
We all are the work of your hand.
9Don’t be furious, Yahweh.
Don’t remember iniquity forever.
Look and see, we beg you,
we are all your people.
10Your holy cities have become a wilderness.
Zion has become a wilderness,
Jerusalem a desolation.
11Our holy and our beautiful house where our fathers praised you
is burned with fire.
All our pleasant places are laid waste.
12Will you hold yourself back for these things, Yahweh?
Will you keep silent and punish us very severely?
