Isaiah 64

The Message Bible MSG

1 Oh, that you would rip open the heavens and descend, make the mountains shudder at your presence -

2 As when a forest catches fire, as when fire makes a pot to boil -

3 To shock your enemies into facing you, make the nations shake in their boots! You did terrible things we never expected, descended and made the mountains shudder at your presence.

4 Since before time began no one has ever imagined, No ear heard, no eye seen, a God like you who works for those who wait for him.

5 You meet those who happily do what is right, who keep a good memory of the way you work. But how angry you've been with us! We've sinned and kept at it so long! Is there any hope for us? Can we be saved?

6 We're all sin-infected, sin-contaminated. Our best efforts are grease-stained rags. We dry up like autumn leaves - sin-dried, we're blown off by the wind.

7 No one prays to you or makes the effort to reach out to you Because you've turned away from us, left us to stew in our sins.

8 Still, God, you are our Father. We're the clay and you're our potter: All of us are what you made us.

9 Don't be too angry with us, O God. Don't keep a permanent account of wrongdoing. Keep in mind, please, we are your people - all of us.

10 Your holy cities are all ghost towns: Zion's a ghost town, Jerusalem's a field of weeds.

11 Our holy and beautiful Temple, which our ancestors filled with your praises, Was burned down by fire, all our lovely parks and gardens in ruins.

12 In the face of all this, are you going to sit there unmoved, God? Aren't you going to say something? Haven't you made us miserable long enough?

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 utinam disrumperes caelos et descenderes a facie tua montes defluerent

2 sicut exustio ignis tabescerent aquae arderent igni ut notum fieret nomen tuum inimicis tuis a facie tua gentes turbarentur

3 cum feceris mirabilia non sustinebimus descendisti et a facie tua montes defluxerunt

4 a saeculo non audierunt neque auribus perceperunt oculus non vidit Deus absque te quae praeparasti expectantibus te

5 occurristi laetanti et facienti iustitiam in viis tuis recordabuntur tui ecce tu iratus es et peccavimus in ipsis fuimus semper et salvabimur

6 et facti sumus ut inmundus omnes nos quasi pannus menstruatae universae iustitiae nostrae et cecidimus quasi folium universi et iniquitates nostrae quasi ventus abstulerunt nos

7 non est qui invocet nomen tuum qui consurgat et teneat te abscondisti faciem tuam a nobis et adlisisti nos in manu iniquitatis nostrae

8 et nunc Domine pater noster es tu nos vero lutum et fictor noster et opera manuum tuarum omnes nos

9 ne irascaris Domine satis et ne ultra memineris iniquitatis ecce respice populus tuus omnes nos

10 civitas sancti tui facta est deserta Sion deserta facta est Hierusalem desolata

11 domus sanctificationis nostrae et gloriae nostrae ubi laudaverunt te patres nostri facta est in exustionem ignis et omnia desiderabilia nostra versa sunt in ruinas

12 numquid super his continebis te Domine tacebis et adfliges nos vehementer
