Isaiah 59

Tap a word to mark it throughout the chapter; a morphology code explains itself the same way (in English).
- 1Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save, neither His ear heavy, that it cannot hear;
- 2But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid His face from you, that He will not hear.
- 3For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue muttereth wickedness.
