14 Justice is turned back,
And righteousness stands afar off;
For truth is fallen in the street,
And equity cannot enter.
And righteousness stands afar off;
For truth is fallen in the street,
And equity cannot enter.
15 So truth fails,
And he who departs from evil makes himself a aprey.
Then the Lord saw it, and1 it displeased Him
That there was no justice.
And he who departs from evil makes himself a aprey.
Then the Lord saw it, and1 it displeased Him
That there was no justice.
The Redeemer of Zion
16 aHe saw that there was no man,
And bwondered that there was no intercessor;
cTherefore His own arm brought salvation for Him;
And His own righteousness, it sustained Him.
And bwondered that there was no intercessor;
cTherefore His own arm brought salvation for Him;
And His own righteousness, it sustained Him.
17 aFor He put on righteousness as a breastplate,
And a helmet of salvation on His head;
He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing,
And was clad with zeal as a cloak.
And a helmet of salvation on His head;
He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing,
And was clad with zeal as a cloak.
18 aAccording to their deeds, accordingly He will repay,
Fury to His adversaries,
Recompense to His enemies;
The coastlands He will fully repay.
Fury to His adversaries,
Recompense to His enemies;
The coastlands He will fully repay.
19 aSo shall they fear
The name of the Lord from the west,
And His glory from the rising of the sun;
When the enemy comes in blike a flood,
The Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him.
