Isaiah 59:4-6

New Catholic Bible

⁴ No one brings a suit justly
    or pleads honestly in court.
They all rely on empty words and utter lies;
    they conceive mischief and bring forth evil.
⁵ They hatch adders’ eggs
    and weave the spider’s web;
whoever eats their eggs will die;
    crush one and a viper emerges.
⁶ Their webs are useless for clothing;
    what they make cannot serve to cover them.
Their works are deeds of evil,
    and acts of violence flow from their hands.
