And there is none that calleth upon thy name,
that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee:
for thou hast hid thy face from us,
and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.
But now, O Lord, thou art our father;
we are the clay, and thou our potter;
and we all are the work of thy hand.

Be not wroth very sore, O Lord,
neither remember iniquity for ever:
behold, see, we beseech thee, we are all thy people.

No one(A) calls on your name(B)
    or strives to lay hold of you;
for you have hidden(C) your face from us
    and have given us over(D) to[a] our sins.

Yet you, Lord, are our Father.(E)
    We are the clay, you are the potter;(F)
    we are all the work of your hand.(G)
Do not be angry(H) beyond measure, Lord;
    do not remember our sins(I) forever.
Oh, look on us, we pray,
    for we are all your people.(J)
