Isaiah 59:14-16

Amplified Bible

¹⁴ 
Justice is pushed back,
And righteous behavior stands far away;
For truth has fallen in the city square,
And ^[a]integrity cannot enter.
¹⁵ 
Yes, truth is missing;
And he who turns away from evil makes himself a prey.
Now the Lord saw it,
And it ^[b]displeased Him that there was no justice.
¹⁶ 
He saw that there was no man,
And was amazed that there was no one to intercede [on behalf of truth and right];
Therefore His own arm brought salvation to Him,
And His own righteousness sustained Him.^(A)
