Isaiah 64:1-6

New American Standard Bible

64 ^[a]Oh, that You would tear open the heavens and ^(A)come down,
That the mountains would ^(B)quake at Your presence—
^2 [b]As fire kindles brushwood, as fire causes water to boil—
To make Your name known to Your adversaries,
That the ^(C)nations may tremble at Your presence!
³ When You did ^(D)awesome things which we did not expect,
You came down, the mountains quaked at Your presence.
⁴ For from days of old ^(E)they have not heard or perceived by ear,
Nor has the eye seen a God besides You,
Who acts in behalf of one who ^(F)waits for Him.
⁵ You ^(G)meet him who rejoices in ^(H)doing righteousness,
Who ^(I)remembers You in Your ways.
Behold, ^(J)You were angry, for we sinned,
We continued in ^[c]our sins for a long time;
Yet shall we be saved?
⁶ For all of us have become like one who is ^(K)unclean,
And all our ^(L)righteous deeds are like a filthy garment;
And all of us ^(M)wither like a leaf,
And our ^(N)wrongdoings, like the wind, take us away.
