Isaiah 59:11 - American Standard Version (1901)

We roar all like bears, and moan sore like doves: we look for justice, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us.

We roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us.

We all groan and growl like bears and moan plaintively like doves. We look for justice, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far from us.

All of us growl like bears, and like doves we moan. We expect justice, but there is none; we await salvation, but it is far from us.

We will all roar like bears, and we will sigh like despondent doves. We hoped for judgment, and there is none; for salvation, and it is far from us.
