Their webs will not become clothing,
Nor will they (A)cover themselves with their works;
Their (B)works are works of wrongdoing,
And an (C)act of violence is in their [a]hands.
(D)Their feet run to evil,
And they hurry to shed innocent blood;
(E)Their thoughts are thoughts of wrongdoing,
Devastation and destruction are in their paths.
They do not know the (F)way of peace,
And there is (G)no justice in their tracks;
They have made their paths crooked,
(H)Whoever walks on [b]them does not know peace.

  1. Isaiah 59:6 Lit palms
  2. Isaiah 59:8 Lit it

Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.

Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths.

The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goeth therein shall not know peace.

所結的網不能成為衣服,所做的也不能遮蓋自己。他們的行為都是罪孽,手所做的都是強暴。 他們的腳奔跑行惡,他們急速流無辜人的血;意念都是罪孽,所經過的路都荒涼毀滅。 平安的路他們不知道,所行的事沒有公平。他們為自己修彎曲的路,凡行此路的,都不知道平安。
