00:00.700 --> 00:01.680
Chapter 59.

00:02.600 --> 00:07.280
Behold, the Lord's hand is not shortened,
that it cannot save, neither his ear

00:07.280 --> 00:08.540
heavy, that it cannot hear.

00:09.160 --> 00:13.740
But your iniquities have separated between
you and your God, and your sins have hid

00:13.740 --> 00:16.060
his face from you, that he will not hear.

00:16.500 --> 00:20.260
For your hands are defiled with blood,
and your fingers with iniquity.

00:20.960 --> 00:24.520
Your lips have spoken lies, your tongue
hath muttered perverseness.

00:25.100 --> 00:28.560
None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth
for truth.

00:29.040 --> 00:31.760
They trust in vanity, and speak lies.

00:32.120 --> 00:34.820
They conceive mischief, and bring forth
iniquity.

00:35.380 --> 00:38.480
They hatch cockatrice eggs, and weave the
spider's web.

00:39.220 --> 00:43.360
He that eateth of their eggs dieth,
and that which is crushed breaketh out

00:43.360 --> 00:44.160
into a viper.

00:45.480 --> 00:49.320
Their webs shall not become garments,
neither shall they cover themselves with

00:49.320 --> 00:49.900
their works.

00:50.240 --> 00:54.560
Their works are works of iniquity,
and the act of violence is in their hands.

00:55.040 --> 00:58.980
Their feet run to evil, and they make
haste to shed innocent blood.

00:59.780 --> 01:01.300
Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity.

01:02.040 --> 01:04.240
Wasting and destruction are in their
paths.

01:04.900 --> 01:09.500
The way of peace they know not,
and there is no judgment in their goings.

01:09.680 --> 01:11.640
They have made them crooked paths.

01:12.640 --> 01:15.040
Whosoever goeth therein shall not know
peace.

01:15.560 --> 01:17.440
Therefore is judgment far from us.

01:18.060 --> 01:19.840
Neither doth justice overtake us.

01:20.280 --> 01:22.980
We wait for light, but behold obscurity.

01:23.260 --> 01:25.320
For brightness, but we walk in darkness.

01:25.910 --> 01:30.200
We grope for the wall like the blind,
and we grope as if we had no eyes.

01:30.780 --> 01:32.860
We stumble at noonday as in the night.

01:33.420 --> 01:35.540
We are in desolate places as dead men.

01:36.600 --> 01:40.240
We roar all like bears and mourn sore like
doves.

01:40.960 --> 01:46.940
We look for judgment, but there is none,
for salvation, but it is far off from us.

01:47.520 --> 01:52.340
For our transgressions are multiplied
before thee, and our sins testify against

01:52.340 --> 01:52.720
us.

01:52.720 --> 01:57.840
For our transgressions are with us,
and as for our iniquities, we know them.

01:58.680 --> 02:03.220
In transgressing and lying against the
Lord, and departing away from our God,

02:03.620 --> 02:07.280
speaking oppression and revolt,
conceiving and uttering from the heart

02:07.280 --> 02:08.360
words of falsehood.

02:09.300 --> 02:13.340
And judgment is turned away backward,
and justice standeth afar off.

02:13.800 --> 02:17.340
For truth is fallen in the street,
and equity cannot enter.

02:18.600 --> 02:22.940
Yea, truth faileth, and he that departeth
from evil maketh himself a prey.

02:23.420 --> 02:28.140
And the Lord saw it, and it displeased him
that there was no judgment.

02:29.020 --> 02:32.500
And he saw that there was no man,
and wondered that there was no

02:32.500 --> 02:33.020
intercessor.

02:33.760 --> 02:38.460
Therefore his arm brought salvation unto
him, and his righteousness it sustained

02:38.460 --> 02:38.800
him.

02:39.300 --> 02:43.600
For he put on righteousness as a
breastplate, and an helmet of salvation

02:43.600 --> 02:44.400
upon his head.

02:44.880 --> 02:49.640
And he put on the garments of vengeance
for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a

02:49.640 --> 02:49.940
cloak.

02:51.040 --> 02:54.340
According to their deeds, accordingly he
will repay.

02:54.900 --> 02:57.960
Fury to his adversaries, recompense to his
enemies.

02:58.520 --> 03:00.640
To the islands he will repay recompense.

03:01.440 --> 03:05.560
So shall they fear the name of the Lord
from the west, and his glory from the

03:05.560 --> 03:06.420
rising of the sun.

03:07.340 --> 03:11.260
When the enemy shall come in like a flood,
the spirit of the Lord shall lift up a

03:11.260 --> 03:12.240
standard against him.

03:12.440 --> 03:16.560
And the Redeemer shall come to Zion,
and unto them that turn from transgression

03:16.560 --> 03:18.400
in Jacob, saith the Lord.

03:19.940 --> 03:23.620
As for me, this is my covenant with them,
saith the Lord.

03:24.240 --> 03:28.540
My spirit that is upon thee, and my words
which I have put in thy mouth,

03:29.020 --> 03:33.020
shall not depart out of thy mouth,
nor out of the mouth of thy seed,

03:33.420 --> 03:36.860
nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed,
saith the Lord.

03:37.300 --> 03:39.360
From henceforth and forever.
