Isaiah 59:3-5
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity: your lips have spoken lies, and your tongue uttereth iniquity.
4 There is none that calleth upon justice, neither is there any one that judgeth truly: but they trust in a mere nothing, and speak vanities: they have conceived labour, and brought forth iniquity.
5 They have broken the eggs of asps, and have woven the webs of spiders: he that shall eat of their eggs, shall die: and that which is brought out, shall be hatched into a basilisk.

Isaiah 59:3-5
New International Version
3 For your hands are stained with blood,(A)
your fingers with guilt.(B)
Your lips have spoken falsely,(C)
and your tongue mutters wicked things.
4 No one calls for justice;(D)
no one pleads a case with integrity.
They rely(E) on empty arguments, they utter lies;(F)
they conceive trouble and give birth to evil.(G)
5 They hatch the eggs of vipers(H)
and spin a spider’s web.(I)
Whoever eats their eggs will die,
and when one is broken, an adder is hatched.
