Isaiah 59:5-19
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 59
5
They hatch vipers’ eggs and weave the spider’s web;
The one who eats of their eggs dies,
And
from
what is crushed, a snake breaks out.
6
Their webs will not become clothing,
Nor will they cover themselves with their works;
Their works are works of wrongdoing,
And an act of violence is in their hands.
7
Their feet run to evil,
And they hurry to shed innocent blood;
Their thoughts are thoughts of wrongdoing,
Devastation and destruction are in their paths.
8
They do not know the way of peace,
And there is no justice in their tracks;
They have made their paths crooked,
Whoever walks on them does not know peace.
9
Therefore justice is far from us,
And righteousness does not reach us;
We hope for light, but there is darkness,
For brightness, but we walk in gloom.
10
We grope for the wall like people who are blind,
We grope like those who have no eyes.
We stumble at midday as in the twilight;
Among those who are healthy
we are
like the dead.
11
All of us growl like bears,
And moan sadly like doves;
We hope for justice, but there is none;
For salvation,
but
it is far from us.
12
For our wrongful acts have multiplied before You,
And our sins have testified against us;
For our wrongful acts are with us,
And we know our wrongdoings:
13
Offending and denying the
Lord
,
And turning away from our God,
Speaking oppression and revolt,
Conceiving and uttering lying words from the heart.
14
Justice is turned back,
And righteousness stands far away;
For truth has stumbled in the street,
And uprightness cannot enter.
15
Truth is lacking,
And one who turns aside from evil makes himself a prey.
Now the
Lord
saw,
And it was displeasing in His sight that there was no justice.
16
And He saw that there was no one,
And was amazed that there was not one to intercede;
Then His own arm brought salvation to Him,
And His righteousness upheld Him.
17
He put on righteousness like a breastplate,
And a helmet of salvation on His head;
And He put on garments of vengeance for clothing
And wrapped Himself with zeal as a cloak.
18
According to
their
deeds, so will He repay:
Wrath to His adversaries, retribution to His enemies;
To the coastlands He will deal retribution.
19
So they will fear the name of the
Lord
from the west
And His glory from the rising of the sun,
For He will come like a rushing stream
Which the wind of the
Lord
drives.
King James Version
Chapter 59
5
They hatch cockatrice' eggs, and weave the spider's web: he that eateth of their eggs dieth, and that which is crushed breaketh out into a viper.
6
Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.
7
Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths.
8
The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goeth therein shall not know peace.
9
Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth justice overtake us: we wait for light, but behold obscurity; for brightness, but we walk in darkness.
10
We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the night; we are in desolate places as dead men.
11
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.
12
For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them;
13
In transgressing and lying against the
Lord
, and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
14
And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter.
15
Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the
Lord
saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment.
16
And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him.
17
For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.
18
According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence.
19
So shall they fear the name of the
Lord
from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the
Lord
shall lift up a standard against him.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 59
5
They hatch viper’s eggs
and weave spider’s webs.
Whoever eats their eggs will die;
crack one open, and a viper is hatched.
6
Their webs cannot become clothing,
and they cannot cover themselves with their works.
Their works are sinful works,
and violent acts are in their hands.
7
Their feet run after evil,
and they rush to shed innocent blood.
Their thoughts are sinful thoughts;
ruin and wretchedness are in their paths.
8
They have not known the path of peace,
and there is no justice in their ways.
They have made their roads crooked;
no one who walks on them will know peace.
9
Therefore justice is far from us,
and righteousness does not reach us.
We hope for light, but there is darkness;
for brightness, but we live in the night.
10
We grope along a wall like the blind;
we grope like those without eyes.
We stumble at noon as though it were twilight;
we are like the dead among those who are healthy.
11
We all growl like bears
and moan like doves.
We hope for justice, but there is none;
for salvation, but it is far from us.
12
For our transgressions have multiplied before you,
and our sins testify against us.
For our transgressions are with us,
and we know our iniquities:
13
transgression and deception against the
Lord
,
turning away from following our God,
speaking oppression and revolt,
conceiving and uttering lying words from the heart.
14
Justice is turned back,
and righteousness stands far off.
For truth has stumbled in the public square,
and honesty cannot enter.
15
Truth is missing,
and whoever turns from evil is plundered.
The
Lord
saw that there was no justice,
and he was offended.
16
He saw that there was no man—
he was amazed that there was no one interceding;
so his own arm brought salvation,
and his own righteousness supported him.
17
He put on righteousness as body armor,
and a helmet of salvation on his head;
he put on garments of vengeance for clothing,
and he wrapped himself in zeal as in a cloak.
18
So he will repay according to their deeds:
fury to his enemies,
retribution to his foes,
and he will repay the coasts and islands.
19
They will fear the name of the
Lord
in the west
and his glory in the east;
for he will come like a rushing stream
driven by the wind of the
Lord
.
New Living Translation
Chapter 59
5
They hatch deadly snakes
and weave spiders’ webs.
Whoever eats their eggs will die;
whoever cracks them will hatch a viper.
6
Their webs can’t be made into clothing,
and nothing they do is productive.
All their activity is filled with sin,
and violence is their trademark.
7
Their feet run to do evil,
and they rush to commit murder.
They think only about sinning.
Misery and destruction always follow them.
8
They don’t know where to find peace
or what it means to be just and good.
They have mapped out crooked roads,
and no one who follows them knows a moment’s peace.
9
So there is no justice among us,
and we know nothing about right living.
We look for light but find only darkness.
We look for bright skies but walk in gloom.
10
We grope like the blind along a wall,
feeling our way like people without eyes.
Even at brightest noontime,
we stumble as though it were dark.
Among the living,
we are like the dead.
11
We growl like hungry bears;
we moan like mournful doves.
We look for justice, but it never comes.
We look for rescue, but it is far away from us.
12
For our sins are piled up before God
and testify against us.
Yes, we know what sinners we are.
13
We know we have rebelled and have denied the
Lord
.
We have turned our backs on our God.
We know how unfair and oppressive we have been,
carefully planning our deceitful lies.
14
Our courts oppose the righteous,
and justice is nowhere to be found.
Truth stumbles in the streets,
and honesty has been outlawed.
15
Yes, truth is gone,
and anyone who renounces evil is attacked.
The
Lord
looked and was displeased
to find there was no justice.
16
He was amazed to see that no one intervened
to help the oppressed.
So he himself stepped in to save them with his strong arm,
and his justice sustained him.
17
He put on righteousness as his body armor
and placed the helmet of salvation on his head.
He clothed himself with a robe of vengeance
and wrapped himself in a cloak of divine passion.
18
He will repay his enemies for their evil deeds.
His fury will fall on his foes.
He will pay them back even to the ends of the earth.
19
In the west, people will respect the name of the
Lord
;
in the east, they will glorify him.
For he will come like a raging flood tide
driven by the breath of the
Lord
.
English Standard Version
Chapter 59
5
They hatch adders ' eggs;
they weave the spider 's web;
he who eats their eggs dies,
and from one that is crushed a viper is hatched.
6
Their webs will not serve as clothing;
men will not cover themselves with what they make.
Their works are works of iniquity,
and deeds of violence are in their hands.
7
Their feet run to evil,
and they are swift to shed innocent blood;
their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity;
desolation and destruction are in their highways.
8
The way of peace they do not know,
and there is no justice in their paths;
they have made their roads crooked;
no one who treads on them knows peace.
9
Therefore justice is far from us,
and righteousness does not overtake us;
we hope for light, and behold, darkness,
and for brightness, but we walk in gloom.
10
We grope for the wall like the blind;
we grope like those who have no eyes;
we stumble at noon as in the twilight,
among those in full vigor we are like dead men.
11
We all growl like bears;
we moan and moan like doves;
we hope for justice, but there is none;
for salvation, but it is far from us.
12
For our transgressions are multiplied before you,
and our sins testify against us;
for our transgressions are with us,
and we know our iniquities:
13
transgressing, and denying the
Lord
,
and turning back from following our God,
speaking oppression and revolt,
conceiving and uttering from the heart lying words.
14
Justice is turned back,
and righteousness stands far away;
for truth has stumbled in the public squares,
and uprightness cannot enter.
15
Truth is lacking,
and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey.
The
Lord
saw it, and it displeased him
that there was no justice.
16
He saw that there was no man,
and wondered that there was no one to intercede;
then his own arm brought him salvation,
and his righteousness upheld him.
17
He put on righteousness as a breastplate,
and a helmet of salvation on his head;
he put on garments of vengeance for clothing,
and wrapped himself in zeal as a cloak.
18
According to their deeds, so will he repay,
wrath to his adversaries, repayment to his enemies;
to the coastlands he will render repayment.
19
So they shall fear the name of the
Lord
from the west,
and his glory from the rising of the sun;
for he will come like a rushing stream,
which the wind of the
Lord
drives.
New International Version
Chapter 59
5
They hatch the eggs of vipers
and spin a spider’s web.
Whoever eats their eggs will die,
and when one is broken, an adder is hatched.
6
Their cobwebs are useless for clothing;
they cannot cover themselves with what they make.
Their deeds are evil deeds,
and acts of violence are in their hands.
7
Their feet rush into sin;
they are swift to shed innocent blood.
They pursue evil schemes;
acts of violence mark their ways.
8
The way of peace they do not know;
there is no justice in their paths.
They have turned them into crooked roads;
no one who walks along them will know peace.
9
So justice is far from us,
and righteousness does not reach us.
We look for light, but all is darkness;
for brightness, but we walk in deep shadows.
10
Like the blind we grope along the wall,
feeling our way like people without eyes.
At midday we stumble as if it were twilight;
among the strong, we are like the dead.
11
We all growl like bears;
we moan mournfully like doves.
We look for justice, but find none;
for deliverance, but it is far away.
12
For our offenses are many in your sight,
and our sins testify against us.
Our offenses are ever with us,
and we acknowledge our iniquities:
13
rebellion and treachery against the
Lord
,
turning our backs on our God,
inciting revolt and oppression,
uttering lies our hearts have conceived.
14
So justice is driven back,
and righteousness stands at a distance;
truth has stumbled in the streets,
honesty cannot enter.
15
Truth is nowhere to be found,
and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey. The
Lord
looked and was displeased
that there was no justice.
16
He saw that there was no one,
he was appalled that there was no one to intervene;
so his own arm achieved salvation for him,
and his own righteousness sustained him.
17
He put on righteousness as his breastplate,
and the helmet of salvation on his head;
he put on the garments of vengeance
and wrapped himself in zeal as in a cloak.
18
According to what they have done,
so will he repay
wrath to his enemies
and retribution to his foes;
he will repay the islands their due.
19
From the west, people will fear the name of the
Lord
,
and from the rising of the sun, they will revere his glory.
For he will come like a pent-up flood
that the breath of the
Lord
drives along.
New King James Version
Chapter 59
5
They hatch vipers’ eggs and weave the spider’s web;
He who eats of their eggs dies,
And
from
that which is crushed a viper breaks out.
6
Their 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.
7
Their feet run to evil,
And they make haste to shed innocent blood;
Their thoughts
are
thoughts of iniquity;
Wasting and destruction
are
in their paths.
8
The way of peace they have not known,
And
there is
no justice in their ways;
They have made themselves crooked paths;
Whoever takes that way shall not know peace.
9
Therefore justice is far from us,
Nor does righteousness overtake us;
We look for light, but there is darkness!
For brightness,
but
we walk in blackness!
10
We 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.
11
We all growl like bears,
And moan sadly like doves;
We look for justice, but
there is
none;
For salvation,
but
it is far from us.
12
For our transgressions are multiplied before You,
And our sins testify against us;
For our transgressions
are
with us,
And
as for
our iniquities, we know them:
13
In transgressing and lying against the
Lord
,
And departing from our God,
Speaking oppression and revolt,
Conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
14
Justice is turned back,
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 prey.
Then the
Lord
saw
it,
and it displeased Him
That
there was
no justice.
16
He saw that
there was
no man,
And wondered that
there was
no intercessor;
Therefore His own arm brought salvation for Him;
And His own righteousness, it sustained Him.
17
For 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.
18
According to
their
deeds, accordingly He will repay,
Fury to His adversaries,
Recompense to His enemies;
The coastlands He will fully repay.
19
So 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 like a flood,
The Spirit of the
Lord
will lift up a standard against him.
