Isaiah 59:2-4

Revised Standard Version

² but your iniquities have made a separation
    between you and your God,
and your sins have hid his face from you
    so that he does not hear.
³ For your hands are defiled with blood
    and your fingers with iniquity;
your lips have spoken lies,
    your tongue mutters wickedness.
⁴ No one enters suit justly,
    no one goes to law honestly;
they rely on empty pleas, they speak lies,
    they conceive mischief and bring forth iniquity.
