1 Oh that H3863 thou wouldest rend H7167 the heavens H8064 , that thou wouldest come down H3381 , that the mountains H2022 might flow down H2151 at thy presence H6440 M-CMP-2MS ,
2 As when the melting H2003 fire H784 burneth H6919 , the fire H784 causeth the waters H4325 to boil H1158 , to make thy name H8034 known H3045 to thine adversaries H6862 , that the nations H1471 may tremble H7264 at thy presence H6440 M-CMP-2MS !
3 When thou didst H6213 VQY3MS terrible things H3372 which we looked not for , thou camest down H3381 , the mountains H2022 flowed down H2151 at thy presence H6440 .
4 For since the beginning of the world H5769 NMS men have not H3808 heard H8085 , nor H3808 perceived by the ear H238 , neither H3808 hath the eye H5869 seen H7200 , O God H430 , beside H2108 thee , what he hath prepared H6213 for him that waiteth H2442 for him .
5 Thou meetest H6293 him that rejoiceth H7797 and worketh H6213 righteousness H6664 , those that remember H2142 thee in thy ways H1870 : behold H2005 , thou H859 art wroth H7107 ; for we have sinned H2398 : in those is continuance H5769 , and we shall be saved H3467 .
6 But we are H1961 all H3605 as an unclean H2931 thing , and all H3605 our righteousnesses H6666 are as filthy H5708 rags H899 ; and we all H3605 do fade H5034 as a leaf H5929 ; and our iniquities H5771 , like the wind H7307 , have taken us away H5375 .
7 And there is none H369 that calleth H7121 upon thy name H8034 , that stirreth up himself H5782 to take hold H2388 of thee : for H3588 thou hast hid H5641 thy face H6440 from H4480 us , and hast consumed H4127 us , because H3027 CFS-2MS of our iniquities H5771 .
8 But now H6258 , O LORD H3068 EDS , thou H859 art our father H1 ; we H587 are the clay H2563 , and thou H859 our potter H3335 ; and we all H3605 are the work H4639 of thy hand H3027 .
9 Be not wroth H7107 very sore H5704 , O LORD H3068 , neither H408 remember H2142 iniquity H5771 forever H5703 : behold H2005 , see H5027 , we beseech thee H4994 , we are all H3605 thy people H5971 .
10 Thy holy H6944 cities H5892 are H1961 VQQ3MS a wilderness H4057 , Zion H6726 is H1961 VQQ3MS a wilderness H4057 , Jerusalem H3389 a desolation H8077 .
11 Our holy H6944 and our beautiful H8597 house H1004 , where H834 our fathers H1 praised H1984 thee , is H1961 burned up H8316 with fire H784 : and all H3605 our pleasant things H4261 are H1961 laid waste H2723 .
12 Wilt thou refrain thyself H662 for H5921 these H428 things , O LORD H3068 ? wilt thou hold thy peace H2814 , and afflict H6031 us very sore H5704 ?
