Isaiah 59:2-4
Expanded Bible
2 It is your ·evil [iniquity] that has separated
you from your God.
Your sins cause him to ·turn away [L hide his face] from you,
so he does not hear you.
3 ·With your hands you have killed others [L For your hands are defiled with blood],
and ·with your fingers you have done wrong [L your fingers with sin/iniquity].
With your lips you have lied,
and with your tongue you ·say [utter; mutter] evil things.
4 ·People take each other to court unfairly [L No one sues with cause; or No one calls for justice],
and no one tells the truth in ·arguing [setting forth; pleading] his case.
They ·accuse each other falsely [or rely on empty arguments] and tell lies.
They ·cause [L conceive] trouble and ·create more [L give birth to] evil.
Isaiah 59:2-4
New International Version
2 But your iniquities have separated(A)
you from your God;
your sins have hidden his face from you,
so that he will not hear.(B)
3 For your hands are stained with blood,(C)
your fingers with guilt.(D)
Your lips have spoken falsely,(E)
and your tongue mutters wicked things.
4 No one calls for justice;(F)
no one pleads a case with integrity.
They rely(G) on empty arguments, they utter lies;(H)
they conceive trouble and give birth to evil.(I)
