bes@Isaiah:63:7 @ I remembered the mercy of the Lord, the (note:)1 Pe strkjv@2:9(:note) praises of the Lord in all things wherein he recompenses us. The Lord is a good judge to the house of Israel; he deals with us according to his mercy, and according to the abundance of his righteousness.

bes@Isaiah:63:8 @ And he said, Is it not my people? the children surely will not be rebellious: and he became to them deliverance

bes@Isaiah:63:9 @ out of all their affliction: not an ambassador, nor a messenger, but himself saved them, because he loved them and spared them: he himself redeemed them, and took them up, and lifted them up (note:)Gr. all the days of the age(:note) all the days of old.

bes@Isaiah:63:10 @ But they disobeyed, and provoked his Holy Spirit: so he turned to be an enemy, he himself contended against them.

bes@Isaiah:63:13 @ He led them through the deep, as a horse through the wilderness, and they fainted not,

bes@Isaiah:63:15 @ Turn from heaven, and look from thy holy habitation and from thy glory: where is thy zeal and thy strength? where is the abundance of thy mercy and of thy compassions, that thou hast withholden thyself from us?

bes@Isaiah:63:17 @ Why hast thou caused us to err, O Lord, from thy way? and has hardened our hearts, that we should not fear thee? Return for thy servants’ sake, for the sake of the tribes of thine inheritance,

bes@Isaiah:64:1 @ If thou wouldest open the heaven, trembling will take hold upon the mountains from thee, and they shall melt,

bes@Isaiah:64:2 @ as wax melts before the fire; and fire shall burn up the enemies, and thy name shall be manifest among the adversaries: at thy presence the nations shall be troubled,

bes@Isaiah:64:3 @ whenever thou shalt work gloriously; trembling from thee shall take hold upon the mountains.

bes@Isaiah:64:4 @ From of old (note:)1 Co strkjv@2:9(:note) we have not heard, neither have our eyes seen a God beside thee, and thy works which thou wilt perform to them that wait for mercy.

bes@Isaiah:64:5 @ For these blessings shall happen to them that work righteousness, and they shall remember thy ways: behold, thou wast angry and we have sinned; therefore we have erred,

bes@Isaiah:64:6 @ and we are all become as unclean, and all our righteousness as a filthy rag: and we have (note:)Lit. flowed out(:note) fallen as leaves because of our iniquities; thus the wind shall carry us away.

bes@Isaiah:64:7 @ And there is none that calls upon thy name, or that remembers to take hold on thee: for thou hast turned thy face away from us, and hast delivered us up because of our sins.

bes@Isaiah:64:8 @ And now, O Lord, thou art our Father, and we are clay, all of us the work of thine hands.

bes@Isaiah:64:9 @ Be not very wroth with us, and remember not our sins (note:)The Gr. en kairw is a Hebraism(:note) for ever; but now look on us, for we are all thy people.

bes@Isaiah:64:10 @ The city of thy holiness has become desolate, Sion has become as a wilderness, Jerusalem a curse.

bes@Isaiah:64:11 @ The house, our sanctuary, and the glory which our fathers blessed, has been burnt with fire: and all our glorious things have gone to ruin.
