Isaiah 63:14

Isaiah 63:14

12 Who led them by the right hand of Moses,
^aWith His glorious arm,
^bDividing the water before them
To make for Himself an everlasting name,

13 ^aWho led them through the deep,
As a horse in the wilderness,
That they might not stumble?”

14 As a beast goes down into the valley,
And the Spirit of the Lord causes him to rest,
So You lead Your people,
^aTo make Yourself a glorious name.

A Prayer of Penitence

15 ^aLook down from heaven,
And see ^bfrom Your habitation, holy and glorious.
Where are Your zeal and Your strength,
The yearning ^cof Your heart and Your mercies toward me?
Are they restrained?

16 ^aDoubtless You are our Father,
Though Abraham ^bwas ignorant of us,
And Israel does not acknowledge us.
You, O Lord, are our Father;
Our Redeemer from Everlasting is Your name.

to make . . . name—(So Isaiah 63:12; II Samuel 7:23).
