New Revised Standard Version Help
59See, the LORD's hand is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear.H2005H3068H3027H7114H3467H241H3513H8085 2Rather, your iniquities have been barriers between you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you so that he does not hear.H5771H914H996H430H2403H5641H6440H8085 3For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue mutters wickedness.H3709H1351H1818H676H5771H8193H1696H8267H3956H1897H5766 4No one brings suit justly, no one goes to law honestly; they rely on empty pleas, they speak lies, conceiving mischief and begetting iniquity.H7121H6664H8199H530H982H8414H1696H7723H2029H5999H3205H205 5They hatch adders' eggs, and weave the spider's web; whoever eats their eggs dies, and the crushed egg hatches out a viper.H1234H6848H1000H707H5908H6980H398H1000H4191H2116H1234H660 6Their webs cannot serve as clothing; they cannot cover themselves with what they make. Their works are works of iniquity, and deeds of violence are in their hands.H6980H899H3680H4639H4639H4639H205H6467H2555H3709 7Their feet run to evil, and they rush to shed innocent blood; their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity, desolation and destruction are in their highways.H7272H7323H7451H4116H8210H5355H1818H4284H4284H205H7701H7667H4546 8The way of peace they do not know, and there is no justice in their paths. Their roads they have made crooked; no one who walks in them knows peace.H1870H7965H3045H4941H4570H6140H5410H1869H3045H7965 9Therefore justice is far from us, and righteousness does not reach us; we wait for light, and lo! there is darkness; and for brightness, but we walk in gloom.H4941H7368H6666H5381H6960H216H2822H5054H1980H653 10We grope like the blind along a wall, groping like those who have no eyes; we stumble at noon as in the twilight, among the vigorous as though we were dead.H1659H7023H5787H1659H5869H3782H6672H5399H820H4191 11We all growl like bears; like doves we moan mournfully. We wait for justice, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far from us.H1993H1677H1897H1897H3123H6960H4941H3444H7368 12For our transgressions before you are many, and our sins testify against us. Our transgressions indeed are with us, and we know our iniquities:H6588H7231H2403H6030H6588H5771H3045 13transgressing, and denying the LORD, and turning away from following our God, talking oppression and revolt, conceiving lying words and uttering them from the heart.H6586H3584H3068H5253H310H430H1696H6233H5627H2029H1897H3820H1697H8267 14Justice is turned back, and righteousness stands at a distance; for truth stumbles in the public square, and uprightness cannot enter.H4941H5253H268H6666H5975H7350H571H3782H7339H5229H3201H935 15Truth is lacking, and whoever turns from evil is despoiled. The LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no justice.H571H5737H5493H7451H7997H3068H7200H3415H5869H4941 16He saw that there was no one, and was appalled that there was no one to intervene; so his own arm brought him victory, and his righteousness upheld him.H7200H376H8074H6293H2220H3467H6666H5564 17He put on righteousness like a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation on his head; he put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and wrapped himself in fury as in a mantle.H3847H6666H8302H3553H3444H7218H3847H899H5359H8516H5844H7068H4598 18According to their deeds, so will he repay; wrath to his adversaries, requital to his enemies; to the coastlands he will render requital.H5921H1578H7999H2534H6862H1576H341H339H7999H1576 19So those in the west shall fear the name of the LORD, and those in the east, his glory; for he will come like a pent-up stream that the wind of the LORD drives on.H3372H8034H3068H4628H3519H4217H8121H6862H935H5104H7307H3068H5127 20And he will come to Zion as Redeemer, to those in Jacob who turn from transgression, says the LORD.H1350H935H6726H7725H6588H3290H5002H3068 21And as for me, this is my covenant with them, says the LORD: my spirit that is upon you, and my words that I have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, or out of the mouths of your children, or out of the mouths of your children's children, says the LORD, from now on and forever.H1285H559H3068H7307H1697H7760H6310H4185H6310H6310H2233H6310H2233H2233H559H3068H5704H5769
