Yeshayahu- Isaiah - Chapter 64
Chapter 64
| 1. As fire burns materials that melt, fire causes water to bubble, to make Your name known to Your adversaries; nations would quake from before You. |
|
א. |
| 2. When You performed awesome deeds for which we did not hope; [when] You descended, mountains dripped from before You. |
|
ב. |
| 3. And whereof no one had ever heard, had ever perceived by ear, no eye had ever seen a god besides You perform for him who hoped for him. |
|
ג. |
| 4. You smote him who rejoiced and worked righteousness, those who mentioned You in Your ways; behold, when You became wroth for we had sinned; through them, of old, we would be saved. |
|
ד. |
| 5. And we all have become like one unclean, and like a discarded garment are all our righteous deeds, and we all have withered like a leaf, and our iniquities carry us away like the wind. |
|
ה. |
| 6. And no one calls in Your name, arouses himself to cling to You, when You hid Your countenance from us, and You caused us to wander through our iniquities. |
|
ו. |
| 7. And now, O Lord, You are our father; we are the clay, and You are our potter, and all of us are Your handiwork. |
|
ז. |
| 8. Be not wroth, O Lord, so very greatly, and remember not iniquity forever; please look, all of us are Your people. |
|
ח. |
| 9. Your holy cities have become a desert; Zion has become a desert, Jerusalem a desolation. |
|
ט. |
| 10. Our sanctuary and our glory, wherein our forefathers praised You is burnt with fire, and all our coveted places have become a waste. |
|
י. |
| 11. Concerning these will You restrain Yourself; will You remain silent and afflict us so very greatly? |
