Thus says the LORD:
Lo, the hand of the Lord is not too short to save,
nor his ear too dull to hear.
Rather, it is your crimes
that separate you from your God,
It is your sins that make him hide his face
so that he will not hear you.
For your hands are stained with blood,
your fingers with guilt;
Your lips speak falsehood,
and your tongue utters deceit.
No one brings suit justly,
no one pleads truthfully;
They trust in emptiness and tell lies;
they conceive mischief and bring forth malice.
That is why right is far from us
and justice does not reach us.
We look for light, and lo, darkness;
for brightness, but we walk in gloom!
Like blind men we grope along the wall,
like people without eyes we feel our way.
We stumble at midday as at dusk,
in Stygian darkness, like the dead.
Four our offenses before you are many,
our sins bear witness against us.
Yes, our offense are present to us.
ISAIAH 59LORD, forgive us for our sins! Our grievous sins, our offenses are great.
