ISA-64:1 Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou

wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy

presence.




ISA-64:2 As [when] the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth

the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries,

[that] the nations may tremble at thy presence!




ISA-64:3 When thou didst terrible things [which] we looked not

for, thou camest down, the mountains flowed down at thy presence.




ISA-64:4 For since the beginning of the world [men] have not

heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O

God, beside thee, [what] he hath prepared for him that waiteth

for him.




ISA-64:5 Thou meetest him that rejoiceth and worketh

righteousness, [those that] remember thee in thy ways: behold,

thou art wroth; for we have sinned: in those is continuance, and

we shall be saved.




ISA-64:6 But we are all as an unclean [thing], and all our

righteousnesses [are] as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a

leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.




ISA-64:7 And [there is] none that calleth upon thy name, that

stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy

face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.




ISA-64:8 But now, O LORD, thou [art] our father; we [are] the

clay, and thou our potter; and we all [are] the work of thy hand.




ISA-64:9 Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember

iniquity for ever: behold, see, we beseech thee, we [are] all

thy people.




ISA-64:10 Thy holy cities are a wilderness, Zion is a wilderness,

 Jerusalem a desolation.




ISA-64:11 Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers

praised thee, is burned up with fire: and all our pleasant

things are laid waste.




ISA-64:12 Wilt thou refrain thyself for these [things], O LORD?

wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore?
