Isaiah 64:2-7

2As when fire sets twigs ablaze and causes water to boil, come down to make your name known to your enemies and cause the nations to quake before you!

3For when you did awesome things that we did not expect, you came down, and the mountains trembled before you.

4Since 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.

5You come to the help of those who gladly do right, who remember your ways. But when we continued to sin against them, you were angry. How then can we be saved?

6All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away.

7No one calls on your name or strives to lay hold of you; for you have hidden your face from us and have given us over to Septuagint, Syriac and Targum; Hebrew have made us melt because of our sins.
