Separated from God
That it cannot save;
Nor His ear heavy,
That it cannot hear.
And your sins have hidden His face from you,
So that He will anot hear.
And your fingers with iniquity;
Your lips have spoken lies,
Your tongue has muttered perversity.
Nor does any plead for truth.
They trust in aempty words and speak lies;
bThey conceive1 evil and bring forth iniquity.
He who eats of their eggs dies,
And from that which is crushed a viper breaks out.
Nor will they cover themselves with their works;
Their works are works of iniquity,
And the act of violence is in their hands.
And they make haste to shed binnocent blood;
cTheir thoughts are thoughts of iniquity;
Wasting and ddestruction are in their paths.
And there is no justice in their ways;
bThey have made themselves crooked paths;
Whoever takes that way shall not know peace.
Sin Confessed
Nor does righteousness overtake us;
aWe look for light, but there is darkness!
For brightness, but we walk in blackness!
And we grope as if we had no eyes;
We stumble at noonday as at twilight;
We are as dead men in desolate places.
| << Isaiah 58:14 | Isaiah 59:2 >> |
