Isaiah 59:12-14

International Children’s Bible

¹² We have done many wrong things against our God.
    Our sins show we are wrong.
We know we have turned against God.
    We know the evil things we have done.
¹³ We have sinned and turned against the Lord.
    We have turned away from our God.
We have planned to hurt others and to disobey God.
    We have planned and spoken lies.
¹⁴ We have driven away justice.
    We have kept away from what is right.
Truth is not spoken in the streets.
    What is honest is not allowed to enter the city.
