Chap. LXIIII.
note
The Iewes in captiuitie pray to God for release: 4. acknowleging his former
great benefites, and their owne sinnes, fleing now to his mercie.
1 VVovld God thou note wouldest breake the heauens
in sunder, and wouldst descend: at thy presence the
mountaines should melt away.
2 As the burning of fyre
would they melt, the waters would burne with fyre, that thy
name might be made knowen to thine enemies: at thy presence
the nations should be trubled.
3 When thou shalt doe
meruelous thinges, we shal not sustayne: thou art descended,
and at thy presence the mountaines are melted.
4 From the
begynning of the world they haue not heard, nor receiued
with the eares: the eie hath not seene ô God beside thee, what
thinges thou hast prepared for them that expect thee.
5 Thou
hast mette him that reioyceth, and doth iustice: in thy waies
they shal remember thee: behold thou art angrie, note and we
haue sinned: we haue bene alwayes in them, note and we shal
be saued.
6 And al we are become as one vncleane, and al
our iustices as the cloth of a menstrued woman: and we
haue al fallen as a leafe, and our iniquities as the winde haue
taken vs away.
7 There is none that inuocateth thy name:
that ryseth vp, and holdeth thee: thou hast hid thy face from
vs, and hast dashed vs in the hand of our iniquitie.
8 And now
Lord thou art our father, and we clay: and thou art our maker,
and al we the workes of thy handes.
9 Be not angrie ô Lord
ynough, and remember no more our iniquitie: loe regard, al
we are thy people.
10 The citie of thy holie one is made desert,
Sion is made desert, Ierusalem is become desolate.
11 The house
of our sanctification, and of our glorie, where our fathers
praysed thee, is turned into the burning of fyre, and al our
thinges worthie to be desired are turned into ruines.
12 Wilt
thou vpon these thinges conteyne thyself ô Lord, wilt thou
hold thy peace, and afflict vs vehemently?
