Isaiah 64
1 if to tear heaven to go down from face your mountain: mount to shake
Would that thou hadst rent the heavens, hadst come down,
2 like/as to kindle fire brushwood water to enquire fire to/for to know name your to/for enemy your from face your nation to tremble
At thy presence, had mountains, quaked: As fire kindleth brushwood, [As] fire causeth, water, to boil, So if thou wouldst make known thy Name to thine adversaries, At thy presence, nations, would tremble.
3 in/on/with to make: do you to fear: revere not to await to go down from face your mountain: mount to shake
When thou didst fearful things we could not expect, Thou camest down at thy presence, mountains, quaked.
4 and from forever: antiquity not to hear: hear not to listen eye not to see: see God exception you to make: do to/for to wait to/for him
Although from age-past times It was never heard, It was not perceived by the ear, —Neither did, the eye, ever see—That, a god besides thee, could work for the man who waited for him,
5 to fall on [obj] to rejoice and to make: do righteousness in/on/with way: conduct your to remember you look! you(m. s.) be angry and to sin in/on/with them forever: antiquity and to save
Yet didst thou meet Him who was rejoicing and working righteousness, Even them who in thy ways, remembered thee, —Lo! thou, hast been vexed, And truly we had sinned, Among them, was the prospect of an age [to come], That we might be saved.
6 and to be like/as unclean all our and like/as garment filth all righteousness our and to wither like/as leaf all our and iniquity: crime our like/as spirit: breath to lift: bear us
But we have become as one unclean all of us, And, as a garment polluted, were all our righteous doings, —And so we faded like a leaf all of us, And, our iniquity, as a wind, carried us away;
7 and nothing to call: call to in/on/with name your to rouse to/for to strengthen: hold in/on/with you for to hide face your from us and to melt us in/on/with hand: themselves iniquity: crime our
And there was none To call upon thy Name, To rouse himself to lay firm hold on thee, —For thou hadst hidden thy face from us, And hadst made us despond, by means of our iniquity.
8 and now LORD father our you(m. s.) we [the] clay and you(m. s.) to form: potter us and deed: work hand your all our
But, now, O Yahweh, our father, thou art, —We are the clay, and, thou, art our potter, Yea the work of thy hand, are we all:
9 not be angry LORD till much and not to/for perpetuity to remember iniquity: crime look! to look please people your all our
Do not be indignant, O Yahweh so very greatly, Neither perpetually, do thou recall iniquity, —Lo! look around, we pray thee…thy people, are, we all.
10 city holiness your to be wilderness Zion wilderness to be Jerusalem devastation
Thy holy cities, have become a wilderness, —Zion, a wilderness, hath become, Jerusalem, a desolation!
11 house: temple holiness our and beauty our which to boast: praise you father our to be to/for fire fire and all desire our to be to/for desolation
Our holy and our beautiful house Where our fathers praised thee, Hath become a conflagration, —And, all our delightful places, are in ruins!
12 upon these to refrain LORD be silent and to afflict us till much
In view of these things, wilt thou restrain thyself. O Yahweh? Wilt thou hold thy peace and humble us so very greatly?
