Verse BSB Berean Standard Bible WEB World English Bible
If only You would rend the heavens and come down, so that mountains would quake at Your presence,
Oh that you would tear the heavens , that you would come down, that the mountains might quake at your presence,
as fire kindles the brushwood and causes the water to boil , to make Your name known to Your enemies , so that the nations will tremble at Your presence!
as 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!
When You did awesome works that we did not expect , You came down, and the mountains trembled at Your presence.
When you did terrible things which we didn't look for , you came down, the mountains quaked at your presence.
From ancient times no one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides You, who acts on behalf of those who wait for Him.
For from of old men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear , neither has the eye seen a God besides you, who works for him who waits for him.
You welcome those who gladly do right , who remember Your ways . Surely You were angry, for we sinned . How can we be saved if we remain in our sins ?
You meet him who rejoices and works righteousness , those who remember you in your ways : behold, you were angry, and we sinned : in them [have we been] of long time; and shall we be saved?
Each of us has become like something unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all wither like a leaf , and our iniquities carry us away like the wind.
For we are all become as one who is unclean, and all our righteousness are as a polluted garment: and we all do fade as a leaf ; and our iniquities , like the wind , take us away .
No one calls on Your name or strives to take hold of You . For You have hidden Your face from us and delivered us into the hand of our iniquity .
There is none who calls on your name , who stirs up himself to take hold of you ; for you have hid your face from us , and have consumed us by means of our iniquities .
But now, O LORD , You are our Father; we are the clay, and You are the potter; we are all the work of Your hand.
But now, Yahweh , you are our Father; we are the clay, and you our potter; and we all are the work of your hand.
Do not be angry, O LORD , beyond measure; do not remember our iniquity forever . Oh , look upon us , we pray; we are all Your people !
Don't be angry very sore , Yahweh , neither remember iniquity forever : see , look, we beg you, we are all your people .
Your holy cities have become a wilderness . Zion has become a wasteland and Jerusalem a desolation.
Your holy cities are become a wilderness , Zion is become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
Our holy and beautiful temple , where our fathers praised You, has been burned with fire , and all that was dear to us lies in ruins .
Our holy and our beautiful house , where our fathers praised you, is burned with fire ; and all our pleasant places are laid waste .
After all this, O LORD, will You restrain Yourself? Will You keep silent and afflict us beyond measure ?
Will you refrain yourself for these things, Yahweh ? will you hold your peace, and afflict us very sore ?
