Isaiah 59:14-16
New American Standard Bible 1995

14 (A)Justice is turned back,
And (B)righteousness stands far away;
For truth has stumbled in the street,
And uprightness cannot enter.
15 Yes, truth is lacking;
And he who turns aside from evil (C)makes himself a prey.
Now the Lord saw,
And it was [a]displeasing in His sight (D)that there was no justice.
16 And He saw that there was (E)no man,
And was astonished that there was no one to intercede;
Then His (F)own arm brought salvation to Him,
And His righteousness upheld Him.

Isaiah 59:14-16
New International Version

14 So justice(A) is driven back,
    and righteousness(B) stands at a distance;
truth(C) has stumbled in the streets,
    honesty cannot enter.
15 Truth(D) is nowhere to be found,
    and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey.

The Lord looked and was displeased
    that there was no justice.(E)
16 He saw that there was no one,(F)
    he was appalled that there was no one to intervene;(G)
so his own arm achieved salvation(H) for him,
    and his own righteousness(I) sustained him.
