for it is the time to seek the Lord,
that he may come and (C)rain righteousness upon you.
13 (D)You have plowed iniquity;

Isaiah 59:5-8
English Standard Version
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.
6 (A)Their webs will not serve as clothing;
men will not cover themselves with what they make.
Their works are works of iniquity,
and deeds of violence are in their hands.
7 (B)Their feet run to evil,
and they are swift to shed innocent blood;
their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity;
desolation and destruction are in their highways.
8 The way of peace they do not know,
and there is no justice in their paths;
they have made their roads crooked;
(C)no one who treads on them knows peace.

and the heritage that (B)oppressors receive from the Almighty:
14 If his (C)children are multiplied, it is for (D)the sword,
and his descendants have not enough bread.
15 Those who survive him the pestilence buries,
and his (E)widows do not weep.
16 Though he (F)heap up silver like dust,
and pile up clothing like clay,
17 he may pile it up, but the righteous will wear it,
and (G)the innocent will divide the silver.
18 He builds his (H)house like a moth's,
like (I)a booth that (J)a watchman makes.
19 He goes to bed rich, but will (K)do so no more;
he opens his eyes, and (L)his wealth is gone.
20 (M)Terrors overtake him like (N)a flood;
in the night a whirlwind (O)carries him off.
21 (P)The east wind lifts him up and he is gone;
it (Q)sweeps him out of his place.
22 It[a] hurls at him (R)without pity;
he flees from its[b] power in headlong flight.
23 It (S)claps its hands at him
and (T)hisses at him from its place.
