Isaiah 59:8-10

International Children’s Bible

⁸ They don’t know how to live in peace.
    There is no fairness in their lives.
They are dishonest.
    Anyone who lives as they live will never have peace.

⁹ Fairness has gone far away.
    Goodness is nowhere to be found.
We wait for the light, but there is only darkness now.
    We hope for a bright light, but all we have is darkness.
¹⁰ We are like blind people feeling our way along a wall.
    We have to feel our way as if we had no eyes.
In the brightness of day we trip as if it were night.
    We are like dead men among the strong.
