Isaiah 59:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 For our trespasses are many before thee, and our [a]sins testify against us: for our trespasses are with us, and we know our iniquities
13 In trespassing and lying against the Lord, and we have departed away from our God, and have spoken of cruelty and rebellion, conceiving and uttering out of the heart [b]false matters.
14 Therefore [c]judgment is turned backward, and justice standeth far off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter.
