ESVEnglish Standard Version

There is no one who calls upon your name,

who rouses himself to take hold of you;

for you have hidden your face from us,

and have made us melt in the hand of our iniquities.

But now, O Lord, you are our Father;

we are the clay, and you are our potter;

we are all the work of your hand.

Be not so terribly angry, O Lord,

and remember not iniquity forever.

Behold, please look, we are all your people.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

No one calls on your name

or strives to lay hold of you;

for you have hidden your face from us

and have given us over to our sins.

Yet you, Lord, are our Father.

We are the clay, you are the potter;

we are all the work of your hand.

Do not be angry beyond measure, Lord;

do not remember our sins forever.

Oh, look on us, we pray,

for we are all your people.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

No one calls on your name,

striving to take hold of you.

For you have hidden your face from us

and made us melt because of our iniquity.

Yet Lord, you are our Father;

we are the clay, and you are our potter;

we all are the work of your hands.

Lord, do not be terribly angry

or remember our iniquity forever.

Please look—all of us are your people!

NLTNew Living Translation

Yet no one calls on your name

or pleads with you for mercy.

Therefore, you have turned away from us

and turned us over to our sins.

And yet, O Lord, you are our Father.

We are the clay, and you are the potter.

We all are formed by your hand.

Don’t be so angry with us, Lord.

Please don’t remember our sins forever.

Look at us, we pray,

and see that we are all your people.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

And there is no one who calls on your name,

who pulls himself up to keep hold of you,

for you have hidden your face from us,

and melted us into the hand of our iniquity.

Yet now Yahweh, you are our father;

we are the clay and you are our potter,

and we all are the work of your hand.

You must not be exceedingly angry, Yahweh,

and you must not remember iniquity forever!

Look! Behold, now! We all are your people!

KJV 1900King James Version

And there is none that calleth upon thy name,

That stirreth up himself to take hold of thee:

For thou hast hid thy face from us,

And hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.

But now, O Lord, thou art our father;

We are the clay, and thou our potter;

And we all are the work of thy hand.

Be not wroth very sore, O Lord,

Neither remember iniquity for ever:

Behold, see, we beseech thee, we are all thy people.
