Isaiah 59:2-4

Lexham English Bible

² Rather, your iniquities have been barriers^[a] between you and your God,
    and your sins have hidden his face from you, from hearing.
³ For your hands are defiled with blood,
    and your fingers with iniquity.
Your lips have spoken lies,
    your tongue speaks wickedness.
⁴ There is nobody who pleads with^[b] justice,
    and there is nobody who judges with honesty.
They rely on nothing
    and speak vanity.
They conceive trouble
    and beget iniquity;
