Isaiah 63:15-19

New International Version

¹⁵ Look down from heaven^(A) and see,
    from your lofty throne,^(B) holy and glorious.
Where are your zeal^(C) and your might?
    Your tenderness and compassion^(D) are withheld^(E) from us.
¹⁶ But you are our Father,^(F)
    though Abraham does not know us
    or Israel acknowledge^(G) us;
you, Lord, are our Father,
    our Redeemer^(H) from of old is your name.
¹⁷ Why, Lord, do you make us wander^(I) from your ways
    and harden our hearts^(J) so we do not revere^(K) you?
Return^(L) for the sake of your servants,
    the tribes that are your inheritance.^(M)
18 For a little while^(N) your people possessed your holy place,
    but now our enemies have trampled^(O) down your sanctuary.^(P)
19 We are yours from of old;
    but you have not ruled over them,
    they have not been called^[a] by your name.^(Q)
