Be astonished! Be astounded!
For a work is being done in your days
that you would not believe if you were told.(A)
6 For I am rousing the Chaldeans,
that fierce and impetuous nation,
who march through the breadth of the earth
to seize dwellings not their own.(B)

their justice and dignity proceed from themselves.(C)
8 Their horses are swifter than leopards,
more menacing than wolves at dusk;
their horses charge.
Their horsemen come from far away;
they fly like an eagle swift to devour.(D)
9 They all come for violence,
with faces pressing[a] forward;
they gather captives like sand.(E)

and of rulers they make sport.
They laugh at every fortress
and heap up earth to take it.(F)

A Prayer of Penitence
15 Look down from heaven and see,
from your holy and glorious habitation.
Where are your zeal and your might?
Your great pity and your compassion are withheld from me.(A)
16 For you are our father,
though Abraham does not know us
and Israel does not acknowledge us;
you, O Lord, are our father;
our Redeemer from of old is your name.(B)
17 Why, O Lord, do you let us stray from your ways
and let our heart harden, so that we do not fear you?
Turn back for the sake of your servants,
the tribes that are your heritage.(C)
18 Your holy people took possession for a little while,
but now our adversaries have trampled down your sanctuary.(D)
19 We have long been like those whom you do not rule,
like those not called by your name.(E)
64 O that you would tear open the heavens and come down,
so that the mountains would quake at your presence—(F)
2 [a]as when fire kindles brushwood
and the fire causes water to boil—
to make your name known to your adversaries,
so that the nations might tremble at your presence!(G)
3 When you did awesome deeds that we did not expect,
you came down; the mountains quaked at your presence.(H)
4 From ages past no one has heard,
no ear has perceived,
no eye has seen any God besides you,
who works for those who wait for him.(I)
