第六十四章
1願你裂天而降，願山在你面前震動，
2好像火燒乾柴，又像火將水燒開。使你敵人知道你的名，使列國
在你面前發顫。3你曾行我們不能逆料可畏的事。那時你降臨，山
嶺在你面前震動。4從古以來人未曾聽見、未曾耳聞、未曾眼見在
你以外有甚麼神為等候他的人行事。5你迎接那歡喜行義、記念你
道的人；你曾發怒，我們仍犯罪。這景況已久，我們還能得救嗎？
6我們都像不潔淨的人，所有的義都像污穢的衣服；我們都像葉子
漸漸枯乾，我們的罪孽好像風把我們吹去。7並且無人求告你的
名，無人奮力抓住你；原來你掩面不顧我們，使我們因罪孽消化。
8耶和華啊，現在你仍是我們的父！我們是泥，你是窯匠，我們都
是你手的工作。9耶和華啊，求你不要大發震怒，也不要永遠記念
罪孽。求你垂顧我們，我們都是你的百姓。10你的聖邑變為曠野，
錫安變為曠野，耶路撒冷成為荒場。11我們聖潔華美的殿，就是我
們列祖讚美你的所在，被火焚燒；我們所羨慕的美地盡都荒廢。
12耶和華啊，有這些事，你還忍得住嗎？你仍靜默，使我們深受苦難嗎？

Chapter 64
1 Oh, that you would rend the heavens and come down,that the mountains
would tremble before you!2 As 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!3 For when you did awesome
things that we did not expect,you came down, and the mountains trembled
before you.4 Since 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.5 You 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?6 All 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.7 No 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 our sins.8 Yet you, LORD, are our Father.We
are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand.9 Do not
be angry beyond measure, LORD; do not remember our sins forever.Oh,
look on us, we pray, for we are all your people.10 Your sacred cities have
become a wasteland; even Zion is a wasteland, Jerusalem a desolation.
11 Our holy and glorious temple, where our ancestors praised you,
has been burned with fire, and all that we treasured lies in ruins.
12 After all this, LORD, will you hold yourself back?Will you keep silent
and punish us beyond measure?
