14 like cattle in the valley that goes down, the Spirit of Yahweh gave him rest,[a]
    so you lead your people to make a magnificent name for yourself.

Prayer for Mercy

15 Look from heaven,
    and see from the lofty residence of your holiness and glory.
Where are your zeal and strength?
    Your compassion[b] and mercy to me hold themselves back.
16 For you are our father, although Abraham does not know us,
    and Israel does not acknowledge us.
You, Yahweh are our father,
    Our Redeemer from of old is your name.

  1. Isaiah 63:14 Literally “caused to rest”
  2. Isaiah 63:15 Literally “The agitation of your intestines”

14 As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of the Lord caused him to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name.

15 Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy holiness and of thy glory: where is thy zeal and thy strength, the sounding of thy bowels and of thy mercies toward me? are they restrained?

16 Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O Lord, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting.

14 „Ca fiara, care se pogoară în vale, aşa i-a dus Duhul Domnului la odihnă. Aşa ai povăţuit Tu pe poporul Tău, ca(A) să-Ţi faci un Nume plin de slavă!” 15 „Priveşte(B) din cer şi vezi, din locuinţa(C) Ta cea sfântă şi slăvită: Unde sunt râvna şi puterea Ta? Fiorul inimii Tale(D) şi îndurările Tale nu se mai arată faţă de mine! 16 Totuşi(E) Tu eşti Tatăl nostru! Căci Avraam nu(F) ne cunoaşte, şi Israel nu ştie cine suntem, dar Tu, Doamne, eşti Tatăl nostru, Tu din veşnicie Te numeşti Mântuitorul nostru.
