Isaiah 59:15-17
Evangelical Heritage Version
15 The truth is missing,
and anyone who turns from evil makes himself prey.[a]
The Lord looked and saw something evil—
there was no justice.
16 He saw that there was no one.
He was appalled that there was no one who could intervene.
So his own arm worked salvation for him,
and his own righteousness supported him.
17 He clothed himself with righteousness like armor
and wore a helmet of salvation on his head.
He dressed in garments for vengeance,
and he wrapped himself with zeal like a cloak.

The Lord looked and was displeased
that there was no justice.(B)

and the helmet(H) of salvation on his head;
he put on the garments(I) of vengeance(J)
