Isaiah 59:4-6

International Children’s Bible

⁴ People take each other to court unfairly.
    No one tells the truth in arguing his case.
They accuse each other falsely and tell lies.
    They cause trouble and create more evil.
⁵ They hatch evil like eggs from poisonous snakes.
    If you eat one of those eggs, you will die.
    And if you break one open, a poisonous snake comes out.
People tell lies as they would spin a spider’s web.
⁶     The webs they make cannot be used for clothes.
    You can’t cover yourself with those webs.
The things they do are evil.
    They use their hands to hurt others.
