Isaiah 51:9-11
New Living Translation
9 Wake up, wake up, O Lord! Clothe yourself with strength!
Flex your mighty right arm!
Rouse yourself as in the days of old
when you slew Egypt, the dragon of the Nile.[a]
10 Are you not the same today,
the one who dried up the sea,
making a path of escape through the depths
so that your people could cross over?
11 Those who have been ransomed by the Lord will return.
They will enter Jerusalem[b] singing,
crowned with everlasting joy.
Sorrow and mourning will disappear,
and they will be filled with joy and gladness.

who pierced that monster(F) through?
10 Was it not you who dried up the sea,(G)
the waters of the great deep,(H)
who made a road in the depths of the sea(I)
so that the redeemed(J) might cross over?
11 Those the Lord has rescued(K) will return.
They will enter Zion with singing;(L)
everlasting joy will crown their heads.
Gladness and joy(M) will overtake them,
and sorrow and sighing will flee away.(N)

Isaiah 63:15-64:4
New Living Translation
Prayer for Mercy and Pardon
15 Lord, look down from heaven;
look from your holy, glorious home, and see us.
Where is the passion and the might
you used to show on our behalf?
Where are your mercy and compassion now?
16 Surely you are still our Father!
Even if Abraham and Jacob[a] would disown us,
Lord, you would still be our Father.
You are our Redeemer from ages past.
17 Lord, why have you allowed us to turn from your path?
Why have you given us stubborn hearts so we no longer fear you?
Return and help us, for we are your servants,
the tribes that are your special possession.
18 How briefly your holy people possessed your holy place,
and now our enemies have destroyed it.
19 Sometimes it seems as though we never belonged to you,
as though we had never been known as your people.
64 [b]Oh, that you would burst from the heavens and come down!
How the mountains would quake in your presence!
2 [c]As fire causes wood to burn
and water to boil,
your coming would make the nations tremble.
Then your enemies would learn the reason for your fame!
3 When you came down long ago,
you did awesome deeds beyond our highest expectations.
And oh, how the mountains quaked!
4 For since the world began,
no ear has heard
and no eye has seen a God like you,
who works for those who wait for him!
Isaiah 63:15-64:4
New International Version
15 Look down from heaven(A) and see,
from your lofty throne,(B) holy and glorious.
Where are your zeal(C) and your might?
Your tenderness and compassion(D) are withheld(E) from us.
16 But you are our Father,(F)
though Abraham does not know us
or Israel acknowledge(G) us;
you, Lord, are our Father,
our Redeemer(H) from of old is your name.
17 Why, Lord, do you make us wander(I) from your ways
and harden our hearts(J) so we do not revere(K) you?
Return(L) for the sake of your servants,
the tribes that are your inheritance.(M)
18 For a little while(N) your people possessed your holy place,
but now our enemies have trampled(O) down your sanctuary.(P)
19 We are yours from of old;
but you have not ruled over them,
they have not been called[a] by your name.(Q)
64 [b]Oh, that you would rend the heavens(R) and come down,(S)
that the mountains(T) would tremble before you!
2 As when fire sets twigs ablaze
and causes water to boil,
come down to make your name(U) known to your enemies
and cause the nations to quake(V) before you!
3 For when you did awesome(W) things that we did not expect,
you came down, and the mountains trembled(X) before you.
4 Since ancient times no one has heard,
no ear has perceived,
no eye has seen any God besides you,(Y)
who acts on behalf of those who wait for him.(Z)
