-- as fire kindleth brushwood, as the fire causeth water to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries, that the nations might tremble at thy presence!
When thou didst terrible things [which] we looked not for, thou camest down, and the mountains flowed down at thy presence.
When you came down long ago,
you did awesome deeds beyond our highest expectations.
And oh, how the mountains quaked!

Never have [men] heard, nor perceived by the ear, nor hath eye seen a God beside thee, who acteth for him that waiteth for him.

who works for those who wait for him!

And we are all become as an unclean [thing], and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all fade as a leaf, and our iniquities, like the wind, have carried us away;
We are all infected and impure with sin.
When we display our righteous deeds,
they are nothing but filthy rags.
Like autumn leaves, we wither and fall,
and our sins sweep us away like the wind.

And now, Jehovah, thou art our Father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.

We all are formed by your hand.
We are the clay, and you are the potter.
We all are formed by your hand.
Be not wroth very sore, O Jehovah, neither remember iniquity for ever. Behold, see, we beseech thee, we are all thy people.
Don’t be so angry with us, LORD.
Please don’t remember our sins forever.
Look at us, we pray,
and see that we are all your people.
Please don’t remember our sins forever.
Look at us, we pray,
and see that we are all your people.
