Isaiah 64:11-12

64:11 Our holy temple, our pride and joy, ¹ 

the place where our ancestors praised you,

has been burned with fire;

all our prized possessions have been destroyed. ² 

64:12 In light of all this, ³  how can you still hold back, Lord?

How can you be silent and continue to humiliate us?

[64:11]  ¹ tn Heb “our source of pride.”

[64:11]  ² tn Or “all that we valued has become a ruin.”

[64:12]  ³ tn Heb “because of these”; KJV, ASV “for these things.”
