63:16 For you are our father,
though Abraham does not know us
and Israel does not recognize us.
You, Lord, are our father;
you have been called our protector from ancient times.
63:17 Why, Lord, do you make us stray

Return for the sake of your servants,
the tribes of your inheritance!

but you did not rule over them,
they were not your subjects.
