Isaiah 59:2-5

English Standard Version

^2 (A)but your iniquities have made a separation
    between you and your God,
and your sins have hidden his face from you
    so that he does not hear.
^3 (B)For your hands are defiled with blood
    and your fingers with iniquity;
your lips have spoken lies;
    your tongue mutters wickedness.
^4 (C)No one enters suit justly;
    no one goes to law honestly;
they rely on empty pleas, they speak lies,
    ^(D)they conceive mischief and give birth to iniquity.
⁵ They hatch adders' eggs;
    they weave the spider's web;
he who eats their eggs dies,
    and from one that is crushed a viper is hatched.
