Isaiah 64:4–5 — The New International Version (NIV)

Since ancient times no one has heard,

no ear has perceived,

no eye has seen any God besides you,

But when we continued to sin against them,

you were angry.

How then can we be saved?

for we are not godly.

We are constant sinners;

how can people like us be saved?

In these ways we continue;

And we need to be saved.

For a long time we disobeyed,

so how can we be saved?
