Isaiah 63:17-19

Modern English Version

¹⁷ O Lord, why have You made us to err from Your ways
    and hardened our heart from fearing You?
Return for Your servants’ sake,
    the tribes of Your inheritance.
¹⁸ Your holy people possessed Your sanctuary for a little while;
    our adversaries have trodden it down.
¹⁹ We have become
    as those over whom You have never ruled,
    as those who were not called by Your name.
