Isaiah 64:5-6
New Living Translation
5 You welcome those who gladly do good,
who follow godly ways.
But you have been very angry with us,
for we are not godly.
We are constant sinners;
how can people like us be saved?
6 We are all infected and impure with sin.
When we display our righteous deeds,
they are nothing but filthy rags.
Like autumn leaves, we wither and fall,
and our sins sweep us away like the wind.
Isaiah 64:5-6

5 You come to the help of those who gladly do right,(A)
who remember your ways.
But when we continued to sin against them,
you were angry.(B)
How then can we be saved?
6 All of us have become like one who is unclean,(C)
and all our righteous(D) acts are like filthy rags;
we all shrivel up like a leaf,(E)
and like the wind our sins sweep us away.(F)
