1 # Oh <03863> that thou wouldest rend <07167> (8804) the heavens <08064>, that thou wouldest come down <03381> (8804), that the mountains <02022> might flow down <02151> (8738) at thy presence <06440>,
 - PRESENCE OF GOD
2 As when the melting <02003> fire <0784> burneth <06919> (8800), the fire <0784> causeth the waters <04325> to boil <01158> (8799), to make thy name <08034> known <03045> (8687) to thine adversaries <06862>, that the nations <01471> may tremble <07264> (8799) at thy presence <06440>!
3 When thou didst <06213> (8800) terrible things <03372> (8737) which we looked <06960> (8762) not for, thou camest down <03381> (8804), the mountains <02022> flowed down <02151> (8738) at thy presence <06440>.
4 For since the beginning of the world <05769> men have not heard <08085> (8804), nor perceived by the ear <0238> (8689), neither hath the eye <05869> seen <07200> (8804), O God <0430>, beside <02108> thee, what he hath prepared <06213> (8799) for him that waiteth <02442> (8764) for him.
5 Thou meetest <06293> (8804) him that rejoiceth <07797> (8801) and worketh <06213> (8802) righteousness <06664>, those that remember <02142> (8799) thee in thy ways <01870>: behold, thou art wroth <07107> (8804); for we have sinned <02398> (8799): in those is continuance <05769>, and we shall be saved <03467> (8735).
6 # But we are all as an unclean <02931> thing, and all our righteousnesses <06666> are as filthy <05708> rags <0899> ; and we all do fade <05034> (8799) (8676) <01101> (8686) as a leaf <05929>; and our iniquities <05771>, like the wind <07307>, have taken us away <05375> (8799).
7 And there is none that calleth <07121> (8802) upon thy name <08034>, that stirreth up <05782> (8711) himself to take hold <02388> (8687) of thee: for thou hast hid <05641> (8689) thy face <06440> from us, and hast consumed <04127> (8799) us, because <03027> of our iniquities <05771>.
8 But now, O LORD <03068>, thou art our father <01>; we are the clay <02563>, and thou our potter <03335> (8802); and we all are the work <04639> of thy hand <03027>.
9 Be not wroth <07107> (8799) very sore <03966>, O LORD <03068>, neither remember <02142> (8799) iniquity <05771> for ever <05703>: behold, see <05027> (8685), we beseech thee, we are all thy people <05971>.
10 Thy holy <06944> cities <05892> are a wilderness <04057>, Zion <06726> is a wilderness <04057>, Jerusalem <03389> a desolation <08077>.
11 Our holy <06944> and our beautiful <08597> house <01004>, where our fathers <01> praised <01984> (8765) thee, is burned up <08316> with fire <0784>: and all our pleasant things <04261> are laid waste <02723>.
12 Wilt thou refrain <0662> (8691) thyself for these things, O LORD <03068>? wilt thou hold thy peace <02814> (8799), and afflict <06031> (8762) us very sore <03966>?
