God, our Father, will Act

But as for you,[a] O Lord, you are our Father;
    and[b] we are clay,[c]
and you are our potter;
    we are all the work of your hands.[d]
Don’t be angry beyond measure, Lord,
    and don’t remember our iniquity for a season.[e]
        Please look now, we are all your people.
10 Your holy cities have become a desert;
    Zion has become like[f] a desert,
        Jerusalem a desolation.
