ACV(i)
15 Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy holiness and of thy glory. Where are thy zeal and thy mighty acts? The yearning of thy heart and thy compassions are restrained toward me.
16 For thou are our Father, though Abraham knows us not, and Israel does not acknowledge us, thou, O LORD, are our Father, our Redeemer, from everlasting is thy name.
17 O LORD, why do thou make us to err from thy ways, and harden our heart from thy fear? Return for thy servants' sake, the tribes of thine inheritance.
18 Thy holy people possessed it but a little while. Our adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary.
19 We have become as those over whom thou never bore rule, as those who were not called by thy name.
64 1 Oh that thou would rend the heavens, that thou would come down, that the mountains might quake at thy presence,
2 as when fire kindles the brushwood, and the fire causes the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries, that the nations may tremble at thy presence!
3 When thou did fearful things which we did not look for, thou came down; the mountains quaked at thy presence.
4 For from of old men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither has the eye seen, O God, besides thee, what he has prepared for him who waits for him.
