KJV
King James Version
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
Oh
that
thou wouldest
rend the heavens ,
that
thou wouldest
come down, that
the
mountains
might
flow
down
at
thy presence,
Didst
Thou not
rend the heavens ?
Thou didst
come down, From
thy presence did
mountains
flow
,
As when
the
melting
fire burneth,
the
fire causeth the
waters
to boil, to make thy name known
to thine adversaries, that
the
nations
may
tremble
at
thy presence !
(
As fire kindleth
stubble
--
Fire causeth water
to boil, )
To make known
Thy name to Thine adversaries, From
Thy presence do
nations
tremble.
When
thou
didst
terrible
things which
we looked
not for
, thou camest
down, the
mountains
flowed
down
at
thy presence.
In
Thy
doing
fearful
things --
we expect
not, Thou didst
come
down, From
Thy presence did
mountains
flow
.
For
since
the
beginning
of
the
world
men have not heard, nor
perceived
by
the
ear, neither
hath
the
eye seen ,
O
God ,
beside
thee, what
he hath
prepared
for him
that
waiteth
for him.
Even
from
antiquity
`
men '
have not heard, They
have
not
given
ear, Eye hath
not
seen a
God save
Thee, He doth
work
for those
waiting
for Him.
Thou meetest
him
that
rejoiceth
and worketh
righteousness, those
that
remember
thee
in thy ways :
behold
, thou art
wroth ;
for
we have
sinned:
in
those
is continuance, and we shall
be
saved.
Thou hast
met
with
the
rejoicer
And the
doer
of
righteousness, In Thy ways they
remember
Thee
, Lo,
Thou hast
been
wroth when
we sin,
By
them
`
is '
continuance, and we are
saved.
But
we are all
as an
unclean thing
, and all our righteousnesses
are
as
filthy
rags
; and we all
do
fade as a leaf ;
and our iniquities ,
like
the
wind ,
have
taken
us away.
And
we are as unclean --
all
of
us
, And as
a
garment
passing
away,
all our righteous
acts
; And we fade as a leaf --
all
of
us.
And our iniquities as
wind do
take
us away.
And there is none that
calleth
upon
thy name, that
stirreth
up himself to take
hold of
thee :
for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast
consumed
us ,
because
of
our iniquities.
And there is none calling
in
Thy name, Stirring
up himself to lay
hold on
Thee ,
For Thou hast hid Thy face from us, And thou
meltest
us away
by
our iniquities.
But
now, O LORD
, thou art our father ;
we are the clay, and thou our potter;
and we
all
are
the work of thy hand.
And
now, O Jehovah
, thou `
art '
our Father ,
We `
are '
the clay, and Thou our Framer,
And the work of Thy hand --
all
of
us
.
Be not wroth very
sore
, O LORD
, neither
remember
iniquity
for ever :
behold
, see
, we beseech thee, we
are
all
thy people.
Be not wroth, O Jehovah
, very
sore,
Nor
for ever remember
iniquity
, Lo
, look
attentively,
we beseech Thee, Thy people `are'
we
all
.
Thy holy cities are
a wilderness, Zion is
a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
Thy holy cities have
been
a wilderness, Zion a wilderness hath
been
, Jerusalem a desolation.
Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised
thee
, is
burned
up
with fire :
and all our pleasant
things are
laid
waste.
Our holy and our beautiful house, Where praise
Thee
did
our fathers, Hath
become
burnt
with fire ,
And all our desirable
things have
become
a
waste.
Wilt
thou refrain thyself for
these
things
, O
LORD
? wilt
thou hold
thy
peace
, and afflict us very sore ?
For
these
dost
Thou refrain Thyself, Jehovah
? Thou art
silent
, and dost
afflict us very sore !'
