  • Isa 63:7-9 : 7 I will recount the LORD's kindnesses, the praises of the LORD, according to all the LORD has done for us—yes, the great goodness to the house of Israel, which he has granted them according to his compassion and the abundance of his steadfast love. 8 He said, "Surely they are my people, children who will not act falsely." And he became their Savior. 9 In all their distress, he too was distressed, and the angel of his presence saved them. In his love and compassion, he redeemed them; he lifted them up and carried them all the days of old. 10 Yet they rebelled and grieved his Holy Spirit. So he turned and became their enemy, and he himself fought against them. 11 Then he remembered the days of old, Moses and his people: Where is the one who brought them up out of the sea, along with the shepherds of his flock? Where is the one who set his Holy Spirit among them, 12 who sent his glorious arm of power to be at Moses' right hand, who divided the waters before them to gain for himself an everlasting name, 13 who led them through the depths? Like a horse in open country, they did not stumble; 14 like cattle that go down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD gave them rest. This is how you guided your people to make for yourself a glorious name. 15 Look down from heaven and see, from your holy and glorious dwelling. Where are your zeal and your might? Your tenderness and compassion are withheld from us. 16 But you are our Father, though Abraham does not know us, and Israel does not acknowledge us. You, LORD, are our Father, our Redeemer from of old is your name. 17 Why, LORD, do you make us wander from your ways and harden our hearts so we do not revere you? Return for the sake of your servants, the tribes that are your inheritance. 18 For a little while your holy people possessed your sanctuary; our adversaries have trampled it underfoot. 19 We are yours from of old, but you have not ruled over them; they have not been called by your name. Oh, that you would rend the heavens and come down, that the mountains would tremble before you!
