Isaiah 64:2-4
Common English Bible
2 like fire igniting brushwood or making water boil.
[a] If you would make your name known to your enemies,
the nations would tremble in your presence.
3 When you accomplished wonders beyond all our expectations;
when you came down, mountains quaked before you.
4 From ancient times,
no one has heard,
no ear has perceived,
no eye has seen any god but you
who acts on behalf of those who wait for him![b]

Come down to make your name known to your enemies.
The nations will tremble in your presence.
