Isaiah 64:6-8
Names of God Bible
6 We’ve all become unclean,[a]
and all our righteous acts are like permanently stained rags.
All of us shrivel like leaves,
and our sins carry us away like the wind.
7 No one calls on your name
or tries to hold on to you.
You have hidden your face from us.
You have let us be ruined by our sins.
8 But now, Yahweh, you are our Ab.
We are the clay, and you are our potter.
We are the work of your hands.

and all our righteous(B) acts are like filthy rags;
we all shrivel up like a leaf,(C)
and like the wind our sins sweep us away.(D)
7 No one(E) calls on your name(F)
or strives to lay hold of you;
for you have hidden(G) your face from us
and have given us over(H) to[a] our sins.
