64OH, THAT You would rend the heavens and that You would come down, that the mountains might quake {and} flow down at Your presence--H3863H7167H8064H3381H2022H2151H64402As when fire kindles the brushwood and the fire causes the waters to boil--to make Your name known to Your adversaries, that the nations may tremble at Your presence!H2003H784H6919H784H4325H1158H8034H3045H6862H1471H7264H64403When You did terrible things which we did not expect, You came down; the mountains quaked at Your presence.H6213H3372H6960H3381H2022H2151H64404For from of old no one has heard nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen a God besides You, Who works {and} shows Himself active on behalf of him who [earnestly] waits for Him.H5769H8085H238H5869H7200H430H2108H6213H24425You meet {and} spare him who joyfully works righteousness (uprightness and justice), [earnestly] remembering You in Your ways. Behold, You were angry, for we sinned; we have long continued in our sins [prolonging Your anger]. And shall we be saved?H6293H7797H6213H6664H2142H1870H7107H2398H5769H34676For we have all become like one who is unclean [ceremonially, like a leper], and all our righteousness (our best deeds of rightness and justice) is like filthy rags {or} a polluted garment; we all fade like a leaf, and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away [far from God's favor, hurrying us toward destruction].H2931H6666H5708H899H5034H1101H5929H5771H7307H53757And no one calls on Your name and awakens {and} bestirs himself to take {and} keep hold of You; for You have hidden Your face from us and have delivered us into the [consuming] power of our iniquities.H7121H8034H5782H2388H5641H6440H4127H3027H57718Yet, O Lord, You are our Father; we are the clay, and You our Potter, and we all are the work of Your hand.H3068H1H2563H3335H4639H30279Do not be exceedingly angry, O Lord, or [seriously] remember iniquity forever. Behold, consider, we beseech You, we are all Your people.H7107H3966H3068H2142H5771H5703H5027H597110Your holy cities have become a wilderness; Zion has become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.H6944H5892H4057H6726H4057H3389H807711Our holy and our beautiful house, [the temple] where our fathers praised You, is burned with fire, and all our pleasant {and} desirable places are in ruins.H6944H8597H1004H1H1984H8316H784H4261H272312Considering these [calamities], will You restrain Yourself, O Lord [and not come to our aid]? Will You keep silent {and} not command our deliverance but humble {and} afflict us exceedingly?H662H3068H2814H6031H3966
