Isaiah 64:8 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 64:8

6 But we are all like an unclean thing,
And all ^aour righteousnesses are like filthy rags;
We all ^bfade as a leaf,
And our iniquities, like the wind,
Have taken us away.

7 And there is no one who calls on Your name,
Who stirs himself up to take hold of You;
For You have hidden Your face from us,
And have¹ consumed us because of our iniquities.

8 But now, O Lord,
You are our Father;
We are the clay, and You our ^apotter;
And all we are the work of Your hand.

9 Do not be furious, O Lord,
Nor remember iniquity forever;
Indeed, please look—we all are Your people!

10 Your holy cities are a wilderness,
Zion is a wilderness,
Jerusalem a desolation.

11 Our holy and beautiful¹ temple,
Where our fathers praised You,
Is burned up with fire;
And all ^aour pleasant things are laid waste.

12 ^aWill You¹ restrain Yourself because of these things, O Lord?
^bWill You hold Your peace, and afflict us very severely?
