The King James Version Bible

Isaiah 64:8-12

  1. 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.

  2. Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for ever: behold, see, we beseech thee, we are all thy people.

  3. Thy holy cities are a wilderness, Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.

  4. Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised thee, is burned up with fire: and all our pleasant things are laid waste.

  5. Wilt thou refrain thyself for these things, O LORD? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore?
