"In light of all this, how can you still hold back, LORD? How can you be silent and continue to humiliate us?"
— Isaiah 64:12, NET Bible
“Wilt thou refrain thyself for these things, O Lord? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore? ”
“Wilt thou refrain thyself for these things, O Jehovah? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore? ”
“Will you refrain yourself for these things, Yahweh? Will you hold your peace, and afflict us very severely?”
“Wilt thou refrain thyself, O Lord, upon these things, wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us vehemently? ”
“In view of all this, will you still do nothing, O Lord? will you keep quiet, and go on increasing our punishment?”
“Wilt thou refrain thyself for these things, O Lord? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore? ”
LORD, do not be too angry! Do not hold our sins against us continually! Take a good look at your people, at all of us!
Your chosen cities have become a wilderness; Zion has become a wilderness, Jerusalem, a desolate ruin.
Our holy temple, our pride and joy, the place where our ancestors praised you, has been burned with fire; all our prized possessions have been destroyed.
In light of all this, how can you still hold back, LORD? How can you be silent and continue to humiliate us?
