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?
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.
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.
17 O Lord, why have You amade us stray from Your ways,
And hardened our heart from Your fear?
Return for Your servants’ sake,
The tribes of Your inheritance.
And hardened our heart from Your fear?
Return for Your servants’ sake,
The tribes of Your inheritance.
18 aYour holy people have possessed it but a little while;
bOur adversaries have trodden down Your sanctuary.
bOur adversaries have trodden down Your sanctuary.
19 We have become like those of old, over whom You never ruled,
Those who were never called by Your name.
Those who were never called by Your name.
