Isaiah 59:4-6
New International Reader's Version
Isaiah 59:4-6
New International Reader's Version
4 People aren’t fair when they present cases in court.
They aren’t honest when they state their case.
They depend on weak arguments. They tell lies.
They plan to make trouble.
Then they carry it out.
5 The plans they make are like the eggs of poisonous snakes.
Anyone who eats those eggs will die.
When one of them is broken, a snake comes out.
6 Those people weave their evil plans together like a spider’s web.
But the webs they make can’t be used as clothes.
They can’t cover themselves with what they make.
Their acts are evil.
They do things to harm others.
Isaiah 59:4-6
New International Version
Isaiah 59:4-6
New International Version
4 No one calls for justice;(A)
no one pleads a case with integrity.
They rely(B) on empty arguments, they utter lies;(C)
they conceive trouble and give birth to evil.(D)
5 They hatch the eggs of vipers(E)
and spin a spider’s web.(F)
Whoever eats their eggs will die,
and when one is broken, an adder is hatched.
6 Their cobwebs are useless for clothing;
they cannot cover themselves with what they make.(G)
Their deeds are evil deeds,
and acts of violence(H) are in their hands.
