Isaiah 63:16-18
Christian Standard Bible Anglicised
16 Yet you are our Father,
even though Abraham does not know us
and Israel doesn’t recognise us.
You, Lord, are our Father;
your name is Our Redeemer(A)
from Ancient Times.
17 Why, Lord, do you make us stray from your ways?
You harden our hearts so that we do not fear[a] you.(B)
Return, because of your servants,
the tribes of your heritage.
18 Your holy people had a possession[b]
for a little while,
but our enemies have trampled down
your sanctuary.(C)
Isaiah 63:16-18
King James Version
16 Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O Lord, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting.
17 O Lord, why hast thou made us to err from thy ways, and hardened our heart from thy fear? Return for thy servants' sake, the tribes of thine inheritance.
18 The people of thy holiness have possessed it but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary.
