Isaiah 64:4-6
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
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.
5 You meet those who gladly do right,
those who remember you in your ways.
But you were angry, and we sinned;
because you hid yourself we transgressed.[a]
6 We have all become like one who is unclean,
and all our righteous deeds are like a filthy cloth.
We all fade like a leaf,
and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.

Isaiah 64:4-6
New International Version
4 Since ancient times no one has heard,
no ear has perceived,
no eye has seen any God besides you,(A)
who acts on behalf of those who wait for him.(B)
5 You come to the help of those who gladly do right,(C)
who remember your ways.
But when we continued to sin against them,
you were angry.(D)
How then can we be saved?
6 All of us have become like one who is unclean,(E)
and all our righteous(F) acts are like filthy rags;
we all shrivel up like a leaf,(G)
and like the wind our sins sweep us away.(H)
