6 aTheir webs will not become garments,
Nor will they cover themselves with their works;
Their works are works of iniquity,
And the act of violence is in their hands.
Nor will they cover themselves with their works;
Their works are works of iniquity,
And the act of violence is in their hands.
7 aTheir feet run to evil,
And they make haste to shed binnocent blood;
cTheir thoughts are thoughts of iniquity;
Wasting and ddestruction are in their paths.
And they make haste to shed binnocent blood;
cTheir thoughts are thoughts of iniquity;
Wasting and ddestruction are in their paths.
8 The way of apeace they have not known,
And there is no justice in their ways;
bThey have made themselves crooked paths;
Whoever takes that way shall not know peace.
And there is no justice in their ways;
bThey have made themselves crooked paths;
Whoever takes that way shall not know peace.
Sin Confessed
9 Therefore justice is far from us,
Nor does righteousness overtake us;
aWe look for light, but there is darkness!
For brightness, but we walk in blackness!
Nor does righteousness overtake us;
aWe look for light, but there is darkness!
For brightness, but we walk in blackness!
10 aWe grope for the wall like the blind,
And we grope as if we had no eyes;
We stumble at noonday as at twilight;
We are as dead men in desolate places.
And we grope as if we had no eyes;
We stumble at noonday as at twilight;
We are as dead men in desolate places.
11 We all growl like bears,
And amoan sadly like doves;
We look for justice, but there is none;
For salvation, but it is far from us.
And amoan sadly like doves;
We look for justice, but there is none;
For salvation, but it is far from us.
