Isaiah 64:2-12

As [when] the melting
<02003>
fire
<0784>
burneth
<06919> (8800)_,
the fire
<0784>
causeth the waters
<04325>
to boil
<01158> (8799)_,
to make thy name
<08034>
known
<03045> (8687)
to thine adversaries
<06862>_,
[that] the nations
<01471>
may tremble
<07264> (8799)
at thy presence
<06440>_!
{the melting...: Heb. the fire of meltings}
When thou didst
<06213> (8800)
terrible things
<03372> (8737)
[which] we looked
<06960> (8762)
not for, thou camest down
<03381> (8804)_,
the mountains
<02022>
flowed down
<02151> (8738)
at thy presence
<06440>_.
For since the beginning of the world
<05769>
[men] have not heard
<08085> (8804)_,
nor perceived by the ear
<0238> (8689)_,
neither hath the eye
<05869>
seen
<07200> (8804)_,
O God
<0430>_,
beside
<02108>
thee, [what] he hath prepared
<06213> (8799)
for him that waiteth
<02442> (8764)
for him. {seen...: or, seen a God beside thee, which doeth so for him, etc}
Thou meetest
<06293> (8804)
him that rejoiceth
<07797> (8801)
and worketh
<06213> (8802)
righteousness
<06664>_,
[those that] remember
<02142> (8799)
thee in thy ways
<01870>_:
behold, thou art wroth
<07107> (8804)_;
for we have sinned
<02398> (8799)_:
in those is continuance
<05769>_,
and we shall be saved
<03467> (8735)_.
But we are all as an unclean
<02931>
[thing], and all our righteousnesses
<06666>
[are] as filthy
<05708>
rags
<0899>_;
and we all do fade
<05034> (8799) (8676) <01101> (8686)
as a leaf
<05929>_;
and our iniquities
<05771>_,
like the wind
<07307>_,
have taken us away
<05375> (8799)_.
And [there is] none that calleth
<07121> (8802)
upon thy name
<08034>_,
that stirreth up
<05782> (8711)
himself to take hold
<02388> (8687)
of thee: for thou hast hid
<05641> (8689)
thy face
<06440>
from us, and hast consumed
<04127> (8799)
us, because
<03027>
of our iniquities
<05771>_.
{consumed: Heb. melted} {because: Heb. by the hand}
But now, O LORD
<03068>_,
thou [art] our father
<01>_;
we [are] the clay
<02563>_,
and thou our potter
<03335> (8802)_;
and we all [are] the work
<04639>
of thy hand
<03027>_.
Be not wroth
<07107> (8799)
very sore
<03966>_,
O LORD
<03068>_,
neither remember
<02142> (8799)
iniquity
<05771>
for ever
<05703>_:
behold, see
<05027> (8685)_,
we beseech thee, we [are] all thy people
<05971>_.
Thy holy
<06944>
cities
<05892>
are a wilderness
<04057>_,
Zion
<06726>
is a wilderness
<04057>_,
Jerusalem
<03389>
a desolation
<08077>_.
Our holy
<06944>
and our beautiful
<08597>
house
<01004>_,
where our fathers
<01>
praised
<01984> (8765)
thee, is burned up
<08316>
with fire
<0784>_:
and all our pleasant things
<04261>
are laid waste
<02723>_.
Wilt thou refrain
<0662> (8691)
thyself for these [things], O LORD
<03068>_?
wilt thou hold thy peace
<02814> (8799)_,
and afflict
<06031> (8762)
us very sore
<03966>_?
