Isaiah 63:15-64:12 Turn from heaven, and look from your holy habitation and from your glory: where is your zeal and your strength? where is the abundance of your mercy and of your compassions, that you have withholden yourself from us?

LXX2012⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ Turn from heaven, and look from your holy habitation and [from] your glory: where is your zeal and your strength? where is the abundance of your mercy and of your compassions, that you have withholden yourself from us? ¹⁶ For you are our Father; for [though] Abraham knew us not, and Israel did not acknowledge us, yet do you, O Lord, our Father, deliver us: your name has been upon us from the beginning. ¹⁷ Why have you caused us to err, O Lord, from your way? [and] has hardened our hearts, that we should not fear you? Return for your servants' sake, for the sake of the tribes of your inheritance, ¹⁸ that we may inherit a small part of your holy mountain. ¹⁹ We are become as at the beginning, when you did not rule over us, and your name was not called upon us. ⁶⁴ ¹ If you would open the heaven, trembling will take hold upon the mountains from you, and they shall melt, ² as wax melts before the fire; and fire shall burn up the enemies, and your name shall be manifest among the adversaries: at your presence the nations shall be troubled, ³ whenever you shall work gloriously; trembling from you shall take hold upon the mountains. ⁴ From of old we have not heard, neither have our eyes seen a God beside you, and your works which you will perform to them that wait for mercy. ⁵ For [these blessings] shall happen to them that work righteousness, and they shall remember your ways: behold, you were angry and we have sinned; therefore we have erred, ⁶ and we are all become as unclean, and all our righteousness as a filthy rag: and we have fallen as leaves because of our iniquities; thus the wind shall carry us [away]. ⁷ And there is none that calls upon your name, or that remembers to take hold on you: for you have turned your face away from us, and have delivered us up because of our sins. ⁸ And now, O Lord, you are our Father, and we are clay, all [of us] the work of your hands. ⁹ Be not very angry with us, and remember not our sins for ever; but now look on [us], for we are all your people. ¹⁰ The city of your holiness has become desolate, Sion has become as a wilderness, Jerusalem a curse. ¹¹ The house, our sanctuary, and the glory which our fathers blessed, has been burnt with fire: and all our glorious things have gone to ruin. ¹² And for all these things you, O Lord, has withholden, yourself, and been silent, and have brought us very low.
