Isaiah 59:4-8
Christian Standard Bible
Isaiah 59:4-8
Christian Standard Bible
4 No one makes claims justly;
no one pleads honestly.
They trust in empty and worthless words;
they conceive trouble and give birth to iniquity.(A)
5 They hatch viper’s eggs
and weave spider’s webs.
Whoever eats their eggs will die;
crack one open, and a viper is hatched.
6 Their webs cannot become clothing,
and they cannot cover themselves with their works.
Their works are sinful works,
and violent acts are in their hands.
7 Their feet run after evil,(B)
and they rush to shed innocent blood.(C)
Their thoughts are sinful thoughts;(D)
ruin and wretchedness are in their paths.
8 They have not known the path of peace,(E)
and there is no justice in their ways.
They have made their roads crooked;
no one who walks on them will know peace.(F)

Isaiah 59:4-8

4 No one calls for justice;(A)
no one pleads a case with integrity.
They rely(B) on empty arguments, they utter lies;(C)
they conceive trouble and give birth to evil.(D)
5 They hatch the eggs of vipers(E)
and spin a spider’s web.(F)
Whoever eats their eggs will die,
and when one is broken, an adder is hatched.
6 Their cobwebs are useless for clothing;
they cannot cover themselves with what they make.(G)
Their deeds are evil deeds,
and acts of violence(H) are in their hands.
7 Their feet rush into sin;
they are swift to shed innocent blood.(I)
They pursue evil schemes;(J)
acts of violence mark their ways.(K)
8 The way of peace they do not know;(L)
there is no justice in their paths.
They have turned them into crooked roads;(M)
no one who walks along them will know peace.(N)
Jeremiah 23:10-14

Jeremiah 23:10-14
Christian Standard Bible
10 For the land is full of adulterers;(A)
the land mourns(B) because of the curse,(C)
and the grazing lands in the wilderness have dried up.
Their way of life[a] has become evil,
and their power is not rightly used
11 because both prophet and priest are ungodly,(D)
even in my house(E) I have found their evil.
This is the Lord’s declaration.
12 Therefore, their way will seem
like slippery paths in the gloom.(F)
They will be driven away and fall down there,
for I will bring disaster on them,
the year of their punishment.(G)
This is the Lord’s declaration.
13 Among the prophets of Samaria
I saw something disgusting:
They prophesied by Baal
and led my people Israel astray.(H)
14 Among the prophets of Jerusalem also
I saw a horrible thing:(I)
They commit adultery and walk in lies.
They strengthen the hands of evildoers,
and none turns his back on evil.
They are all like Sodom(J) to me;
Jerusalem’s residents are like Gomorrah.

I have seen something horrible:(K)
They commit adultery and live a lie.(L)
They strengthen the hands of evildoers,(M)

the people of Jerusalem are like Gomorrah.”(P)
