    I pray to you, O LORD, my rock.

Isaiah 42:14  
    He will say, "I have long been silent;

Isaiah 57:11  
    "Are you afraid of these idols?
        Do they terrify you?

        that you no longer fear me?" (see verses 3-13)

    Because I love Zion,

        until her righteousness shines like the dawn,
        and her salvation blazes like a burning torch. (see all chapter 62)
Isaiah 64:12  
    After all this, LORD, must you still refuse to help us?
