Isaiah 64:6-8
Living Bible
6 We are all infected and impure with sin. When we put on our prized robes of righteousness, we find they are but filthy rags.[a] Like autumn leaves we fade, wither, and fall. And our sins, like the wind, sweep us away. 7 Yet no one calls upon your name or pleads with you for mercy. Therefore, you have turned away from us and turned us over to our sins.
8 And yet, O Lord, you are our Father. We are the clay and you are the Potter. We are all formed by your hand.

and all our righteous(B) acts are like filthy rags;
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.
