14 As the cattle which go down into the valley,
The Spirit of the (A)Lord gave [a]them rest.
So You (B)led Your people,
To make for Yourself a glorious name.

“You Are Our Father”

15 (C)Look down from heaven and see from Your holy and glorious (D)habitation;
Where are Your (E)zeal and Your mighty deeds?
The (F)stirrings of Your heart and Your compassion are restrained toward me.
16 For You are our (G)Father, though (H)Abraham does not know us
And Israel does not recognize us.
You, O Lord, are our Father,
Our (I)Redeemer from of old is Your name.

  1. Isaiah 63:14 Lit him

14 like cattle that go down to the plain,
    they were given rest(A) by the Spirit of the Lord.
This is how you guided your people
    to make for yourself a glorious name.

15 Look down from heaven(B) and see,
    from your lofty throne,(C) holy and glorious.
Where are your zeal(D) and your might?
    Your tenderness and compassion(E) are withheld(F) from us.
16 But you are our Father,(G)
    though Abraham does not know us
    or Israel acknowledge(H) us;
you, Lord, are our Father,
    our Redeemer(I) from of old is your name.
