Context
2As the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries, the nations may tremble at thy presence!
3When thou didst terrible things we looked not for, thou camest down, the mountains flowed down at thy presence.
4For since the beginning of the world have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.
5Thou meetest him that rejoiceth and worketh righteousness, remember thee in thy ways: behold, thou art wroth; for we have sinned: in those is continuance, and we shall be saved.
6But we are all as an unclean and all our righteousnesses as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
7And none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.
8But now, O LORD, thou our father; we the clay, and thou our potter; and we all the work of thy hand.
