Isaiah 59
BeholdH2005, Jehovah'sH3068 handH3027 is not shortenedH7114, that it cannot saveH3467; neither his earH241 heavyH3513, that it cannot hearH8085:
but your iniquitiesH5771 have separatedH914 betweenH996 you and your GodH430, and your sinsH2403 have hidH5641 his faceH6440 from you, so that he will not hearH8085.
For your handsH3709 are defiledH1351 with bloodH1818, and your fingersH676 with iniquityH5771; your lipsH8193 have spokenH1696 liesH8267, your tongueH3956 mutterethH1897 wickednessH5766.
None suethH7121 in righteousnessH6664, and none pleadethH8199 in truthH530: they trustH982 in vanityH8414, and speakH1696 liesH7723; they conceiveH2029 mischiefH5999, and bring forthH3205 iniquityH205.
They hatchH1234 addersH6848' eggsH1000, and weaveH707 the spider'sH5908 webH6980: he that eatethH398 of their eggsH1000 diethH4191; and that which is crushedH2116 breaketh outH1234 into a viperH660.
Their websH6980 shall not become garmentsH899, neither shall they coverH3680 themselves with their worksH4639: their worksH4639 are worksH4639 of iniquityH205, and the actH6467 of violenceH2555 is in their handsH3709.
Their feetH7272 runH7323 to evilH7451, and they make hasteH4116 to shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818: their thoughtsH4284 are thoughtsH4284 of iniquityH205; desolationH7701 and destructionH7667 are in their pathsH4546.
The wayH1870 of peaceH7965 they knowH3045 not; and there is no justiceH4941 in their goingsH4570: they have made them crookedH6140 pathsH5410; whosoever goethH1869 therein doth not knowH3045 peaceH7965.
Therefore is justiceH4941 farH7368 from us, neither doth righteousnessH6666 overtakeH5381 us: we lookH6960 for lightH216, but, behold, darknessH2822; for brightnessH5054, but we walkH1980 in obscurityH653.
We gropeH1659 for the wallH7023 like the blindH5787; yea, we gropeH1659 as they that have no eyesH5869: we stumbleH3782 at noondayH6672 as in the twilightH5399; among them that are lustyH820 we are as deadH4191 men.
We roarH1993 all like bearsH1677, and moanH1897 soreH1897 like dovesH3123: we lookH6960 for justiceH4941, but there is none; for salvationH3444, but it is far offH7368 from us.
For our transgressionsH6588 are multipliedH7231 before thee, and our sinsH2403 testifyH6030 against us; for our transgressionsH6588 are with us, and as for our iniquitiesH5771, we knowH3045 them:
transgressingH6586 and denyingH3584 JehovahH3068, and turning awayH5253 fromH310 following our GodH430, speakingH1696 oppressionH6233 and revoltH5627, conceivingH2029 and utteringH1897 from the heartH3820 wordsH1697 of falsehoodH8267.
And justiceH4941 is turned awayH5253 backwardH268, and righteousnessH6666 standethH5975 afar offH7350; for truthH571 is fallenH3782 in the streetH7339, and uprightnessH5229 cannotH3201 enterH935.
Yea, truthH571 is lackingH5737; and he that departethH5493 from evilH7451 maketh himself a preyH7997. And JehovahH3068 sawH7200 it, and it displeasedH3415 him that there was no justiceH4941.
And he sawH7200 that there was no manH376, and wonderedH8074 that there was no intercessorH6293: therefore his own armH2220 brought salvationH3467 unto him; and his righteousnessH6666, it upheldH5564 him.
And he put onH3847 righteousnessH6666 as a breastplateH8302, and a helmetH3553 of salvationH3444 upon his headH7218; and he put onH3847 garmentsH899 of vengeanceH5359 for clothingH8516, and was cladH5844 with zealH7068 as a mantleH4598.
According toH5921 their deedsH1578, accordingly he will repayH7999, wrathH2534 to his adversariesH6862, recompenseH1576 to his enemiesH341; to the islandsH339 he will repayH7999 recompenseH1576.
So shall they fearH3372 the nameH8034 of JehovahH3068 from the westH4628, and his gloryH3519 from the risingH4217 of the sunH8121; for heH6862 will comeH935 as a rushing streamH5104, which the breathH7307 of JehovahH3068 drivethH5127.
And a RedeemerH1350 will comeH935 to ZionH6726, and unto them that turnH7725 from transgressionH6588 in JacobH3290, saithH5002 JehovahH3068.
And as for me, this is my covenantH1285 with them, saithH559 JehovahH3068: my SpiritH7307 that is upon thee, and my wordsH1697 which I have putH7760 in thy mouthH6310, shall not departH4185 out of thy mouthH6310, nor out of the mouthH6310 of thy seedH2233, nor out of the mouthH6310 of thy seed'sH2233 seedH2233, saithH559 JehovahH3068, from henceforth and forH5704 everH5769.
