Isaiah 64:6-8
Evangelical Heritage Version
6 All of us have become like something unclean,
and all our righteous acts are like a filthy cloth.[a]
All of us have withered like a leaf,
and our guilt carries us away like the wind.
7 There is no one who calls on your name,
who rouses himself to take hold of you.
So you hid your face from us.
You made us melt by the power of our guilt.
8 But now, Lord, you are our father.
We are the clay, and you are our potter.
All of us are the work of your hand.

we all shrivel up like a leaf,(C)
and like the wind our sins sweep us away.(D)
7 No one(E) calls on your name(F)
or strives to lay hold of you;
for you have hidden(G) your face from us
and have given us over(H) to[a] our sins.
