Isaiah
Chapters 63:12-18
Revised Version 1885
12that caused his glorious arm to go at the right hand of Moses? that divided the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?
13that led them through the depths, as an horse in the wilderness, that they stumbled not?
14As the cattle that go down into the valley, the spirit of the Lord caused them to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name.
15Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy holiness and of thy glory: where is thy zeal and thy mighty acts? the yearning of thy bowels and thy compassions are restrained toward me.
16For thou art our father, though Abraham knoweth us not, and Israel doth not acknowledge us: thou, O Lord, art our father; our redeemer from everlasting is thy name.
17O Lord, why dost thou make us to err from thy ways, and hardenest our heart from thy fear? Return for thy servants' sake, the tribes of thine inheritance.
18Thy holy people possessed it but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary.
