There is (A)no one who calls on Your name,
Who arouses himself to take hold of You;
For You have (B)hidden Your face from us
And have [a]delivered us into the power of our iniquities.

But now, O Lord, (C)You are our Father,
We are the (D)clay, and You our potter;
And all of us are the (E)work of Your hand.
Do not be (F)angry beyond measure, O Lord,
(G)Nor remember iniquity forever;
Behold, look now, all of us are (H)Your people.

  1. Isaiah 64:7 Reading with the DSS and versions; M.T. melted

No one(A) calls on your name(B)
    or strives to lay hold of you;
for you have hidden(C) your face from us
    and have given us over(D) to[a] our sins.

Yet you, Lord, are our Father.(E)
    We are the clay, you are the potter;(F)
    we are all the work of your hand.(G)
Do not be angry(H) beyond measure, Lord;
    do not remember our sins(I) forever.
Oh, look on us, we pray,
    for we are all your people.(J)
