Isaiah 63:16-18

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁶ But you are our Father,
though Abraham does not know us,
though Israel does not acknowledge us.
You, the Lord, are our Father.
Our Redeemer from everlasting is your name.
¹⁷ Why do you cause us to wander from your ways, Lord?
Why do you harden our heart so that we do not fear you?
Return for the sake of your servants,
the tribes that are your heritage.
¹⁸ For a short time your holy people possessed the land.
Now our adversaries have trampled your sanctuary.
