¹ H2005 Behold H3068 , the LORD'S H3027 hand H7114 is not shortened [H8804]   H3467 , that it cannot save [H8687]   H241 ; neither his ear H3513 heavy [H8804]   H8085 , that it cannot hear [H8800]  :

² H5771 But your iniquities H914 have separated [H8688]   H996 between H430 you and your God H2403 , and your sins H5641 have hid [H8689]   H6440 his face H8085 from you, that he will not hear [H8800]  .

³ H3709 For your hands H1351 are defiled [H8738]   H1818 with blood H676 , and your fingers H5771 with iniquity H8193 ; your lips H1696 have spoken [H8765]   H8267 lies H3956 , your tongue H1897 hath muttered [H8799]   H5766 perverseness.

⁴ H7121 None calleth [H8802]   H6664 for justice H8199 , nor any pleadeth [H8737]   H530 for truth H982 : they trust [H8800]   H8414 in vanity H1696 , and speak [H8763]   H7723 lies H2029 ; they conceive [H8800]   H5999 mischief H3205 , and bring forth [H8687]   H205 iniquity.

⁵ H1234 They hatch [H8765]   H6848 cockatrice H1000 ' eggs H707 , and weave [H8799]   H5908 the spider's H6980 web H398 : he that eateth [H8802]   H1000 of their eggs H4191 dieth [H8799]   H2116 , and that which is crushed H1234 breaketh out [H8735]   H660 into a viper.

⁶ H6980 Their webs H899 shall not become garments H3680 , neither shall they cover [H8691]   H4639 themselves with their works H4639 : their works H4639 are works H205 of iniquity H6467 , and the act H2555 of violence H3709 is in their hands.

⁷ H7272 Their feet H7323 run [H8799]   H7451 to evil H4116 , and they make haste [H8762]   H8210 to shed [H8800]   H5355 innocent H1818 blood H4284 : their thoughts H4284 are thoughts H205 of iniquity H7701 ; wasting H7667 and destruction H4546 are in their paths.

⁸ H1870 The way H7965 of peace H3045 they know [H8804]   H4941 not; and there is no judgment H4570 in their goings H6140 : they have made them crooked [H8765]   H5410 paths H1869 : whosoever goeth [H8802]   H3045 therein shall not know [H8804]   H7965 peace.

⁹ H4941 Therefore is judgment H7368 far [H8804]   H6666 from us, neither doth justice H5381 overtake [H8686]   H6960 us: we wait [H8762]   H216 for light H2822 , but behold obscurity H5054 ; for brightness H1980 , but we walk [H8762]   H653 in darkness.

¹⁰ H1659 We grope [H8762]   H7023 for the wall H5787 like the blind H1659 , and we grope [H8762]   H5869 as if we had no eyes H3782 : we stumble [H8804]   H6672 at noonday H5399 as in the night H820 ; we are in desolate H4191 places as dead [H8801]   men .

¹¹ H1993 We roar [H8799]   H1677 all like bears H1897 , and mourn [H8799]   H1897 sore [H8800]   H3123 like doves H6960 : we look [H8762]   H4941 for judgment H3444 , but there is none; for salvation H7368 , but it is far off [H8804]   from us.

¹² H6588 For our transgressions H7231 are multiplied [H8804]   H2403 before thee, and our sins H6030 testify [H8804]   H6588 against us: for our transgressions H5771 are with us; and as for our iniquities H3045 , we know [H8804]   them;

¹³ H6586 In transgressing [H8800]   H3584 and lying [H8763]   H3068 against the LORD H5253 , and departing away [H8800]   H310 from H430 our God H1696 , speaking [H8763]   H6233 oppression H5627 and revolt H2029 , conceiving [H8780]   H1897 and uttering [H8774]   H3820 from the heart H1697 words H8267 of falsehood.

¹⁴ H4941 And judgment H5253 is turned away [H8717]   H268 backward H6666 , and justice H5975 standeth [H8799]   H7350 afar off H571 : for truth H3782 is fallen [H8804]   H7339 in the street H5229 , and equity H3201 cannot [H8799]   H935 enter [H8800]  .

¹⁵ H571 Yea, truth H5737 faileth [H8737]   H5493 ; and he that departeth [H8804]   H7451 from evil H7997 maketh himself a prey [H8711]   H3068 : and the LORD H7200 saw [H8799]   H3415 it, and it displeased [H8799]   H5869   H4941 him that there was no judgment.

¹⁶ H7200 And he saw [H8799]   H376 that there was no man H8074 , and wondered [H8709]   H6293 that there was no intercessor [H8688]   H2220 : therefore his arm H3467 brought salvation [H8686]   H6666 unto him; and his righteousness H5564 , it sustained [H8804]   him.

¹⁷ H3847 For he put on [H8799]   H6666 righteousness H8302 as a breastplate H3553 , and an helmet H3444 of salvation H7218 upon his head H3847 ; and he put on [H8799]   H899 the garments H5359 of vengeance H8516 for clothing H5844 , and was clad [H8799]   H7068 with zeal H4598 as a cloke.

¹⁸ H5921 According to H1578 their deeds H7999 , accordingly he will repay [H8762]   H2534 , fury H6862 to his adversaries H1576 , recompence H341 to his enemies [H8802]   H339 ; to the islands H7999 he will repay [H8762]   H1576 recompence.

¹⁹ H3372 So shall they fear [H8799]   H8034 the name H3068 of the LORD H4628 from the west H3519 , and his glory H4217 from the rising H8121 of the sun H6862 . When the enemy H935 shall come in [H8799]   H5104 like a flood H7307 , the Spirit H3068 of the LORD H5127 shall lift up a standard [H8790]   against him.

²⁰ H1350 And the Redeemer [H8802]   H935 shall come [H8804]   H6726 to Zion H7725 , and unto them that turn [H8802]   H6588 from transgression H3290 in Jacob H5002 , saith [H8803]   H3068 the LORD.

²¹ H1285 As for me, this is my covenant H559 with them, saith [H8804]   H3068 the LORD H7307 ; My spirit H1697 that is upon thee, and my words H7760 which I have put [H8804]   H6310 in thy mouth H4185 , shall not depart [H8799]   H6310 out of thy mouth H6310 , nor out of the mouth H2233 of thy seed H6310 , nor out of the mouth H2233 of thy seed's H2233 seed H559 , saith [H8804]   H3068 the LORD H5704 , from henceforth and for H5769 ever.
