Verse 5

For the transgression{H6588} of Jacob{H3290} is all this, and for the sins{H2403} of the house{H1004} of Israel{H3478}. What is the transgression{H6588} of Jacob{H3290}? is it not Samaria{H8111}? and what are the high places{H1116} of Judah{H3063}? are they not Jerusalem{H3389}?

Behold, for your iniquities{H5771} have ye sold{H4376}{(H8738)} yourselves, and for your transgressions{H6588} is your mother{H517} put away{H7971}{(H8795)}. 2 Wherefore, when I came{H935}{(H8804)}, was there no man{H376}? when I called{H7121}{(H8804)}, was there none to answer{H6030}{(H8802)}? Is my hand{H3027} shortened{H7114}{(H8804)} at all{H7114}{(H8800)}, that it cannot redeem{H6304}? or have I no power{H3581} to deliver{H5337}{(H8687)}? behold, at my rebuke{H1606} I dry up{H2717}{(H8686)} the sea{H3220}, I make{H7760}{(H8799)} the rivers{H5104} a wilderness{H4057}: their fish{H1710} stinketh{H887}{(H8799)}, because there is no water{H4325}, and dieth{H4191}{(H8799)} for thirst{H6772}.
  • Isa 59:1-9 : 1 Behold{H2005}, the LORD'S{H3068} hand{H3027} is not shortened{H7114}{(H8804)}, that it cannot save{H3467}{(H8687)}; neither his ear{H241} heavy{H3513}{(H8804)}, that it cannot hear{H8085}{(H8800)}: 2 But your iniquities{H5771} have separated{H914}{(H8688)} between{H996} you and your God{H430}, and your sins{H2403} have hid{H5641}{(H8689)} his face{H6440} from you, that he will not hear{H8085}{(H8800)}. 3 For your hands{H3709} are defiled{H1351}{(H8738)} with blood{H1818}, and your fingers{H676} with iniquity{H5771}; your lips{H8193} have spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} lies{H8267}, your tongue{H3956} hath muttered{H1897}{(H8799)} perverseness{H5766}. 4 None calleth{H7121}{(H8802)} for justice{H6664}, nor any pleadeth{H8199}{(H8737)} for truth{H530}: they trust{H982}{(H8800)} in vanity{H8414}, and speak{H1696}{(H8763)} lies{H7723}; they conceive{H2029}{(H8800)} mischief{H5999}, and bring forth{H3205}{(H8687)} iniquity{H205}. 5 They hatch{H1234}{(H8765)} cockatrice{H6848}' eggs{H1000}, and weave{H707}{(H8799)} the spider's{H5908} web{H6980}: he that eateth{H398}{(H8802)} of their eggs{H1000} dieth{H4191}{(H8799)}, and that which is crushed{H2116} breaketh out{H1234}{(H8735)} into a viper{H660}. 6 Their webs{H6980} shall not become garments{H899}, neither shall they cover{H3680}{(H8691)} themselves with their works{H4639}: their works{H4639} are works{H4639} of iniquity{H205}, and the act{H6467} of violence{H2555} is in their hands{H3709}. 7 Their feet{H7272} run{H7323}{(H8799)} to evil{H7451}, and they make haste{H4116}{(H8762)} to shed{H8210}{(H8800)} innocent{H5355} blood{H1818}: their thoughts{H4284} are thoughts{H4284} of iniquity{H205}; wasting{H7701} and destruction{H7667} are in their paths{H4546}. 8 The way{H1870} of peace{H7965} they know{H3045}{(H8804)} not; and there is no judgment{H4941} in their goings{H4570}: they have made them crooked{H6140}{(H8765)} paths{H5410}: whosoever goeth{H1869}{(H8802)} therein shall not know{H3045}{(H8804)} peace{H7965}. 9 Therefore is judgment{H4941} far{H7368}{(H8804)} from us, neither doth justice{H6666} overtake{H5381}{(H8686)} us: we wait{H6960}{(H8762)} for light{H216}, but behold obscurity{H2822}; for brightness{H5054}, but we walk{H1980}{(H8762)} in darkness{H653}. 10 We grope{H1659}{(H8762)} for the wall{H7023} like the blind{H5787}, and we grope{H1659}{(H8762)} as if we had no eyes{H5869}: we stumble{H3782}{(H8804)} at noonday{H6672} as in the night{H5399}; we are in desolate{H820} places as dead{H4191}{(H8801)} men. 11 We roar{H1993}{(H8799)} all like bears{H1677}, and mourn{H1897}{(H8799)} sore{H1897}{(H8800)} like doves{H3123}: we look{H6960}{(H8762)} for judgment{H4941}, but there is none; for salvation{H3444}, but it is far off{H7368}{(H8804)} from us. 12 For our transgressions{H6588} are multiplied{H7231}{(H8804)} before thee, and our sins{H2403} testify{H6030}{(H8804)} against us: for our transgressions{H6588} are with us; and as for our iniquities{H5771}, we know{H3045}{(H8804)} them; 13 In transgressing{H6586}{(H8800)} and lying{H3584}{(H8763)} against the LORD{H3068}, and departing away{H5253}{(H8800)} from{H310} our God{H430}, speaking{H1696}{(H8763)} oppression{H6233} and revolt{H5627}, conceiving{H2029}{(H8780)} and uttering{H1897}{(H8774)} from the heart{H3820} words{H1697} of falsehood{H8267}. 14 And judgment{H4941} is turned away{H5253}{(H8717)} backward{H268}, and justice{H6666} standeth{H5975}{(H8799)} afar off{H7350}: for truth{H571} is fallen{H3782}{(H8804)} in the street{H7339}, and equity{H5229} cannot{H3201}{(H8799)} enter{H935}{(H8800)}. 15 Yea, truth{H571} faileth{H5737}{(H8737)}; and he that departeth{H5493}{(H8804)} from evil{H7451} maketh himself a prey{H7997}{(H8711)}: and the LORD{H3068} saw{H7200}{(H8799)} it, and it displeased{H3415}{(H8799)}{H5869} him that there was no judgment{H4941}.
