Isaiah 59:8-10

Expanded Bible

⁸ They don’t know ·how to live in [^Lthe path/way of] peace,
    and there is no ·fairness [justice] in their ·lives [paths].
They ·are dishonest [act deceitfully; ^Lhave made their paths/ways crooked].
    Anyone who ·lives as they live [walks on them] will never ·have [know] peace.

⁹ ·Fairness [Justice] has gone far away;
    ·goodness [righteousness] ·is nowhere to be found [^Ldoes not reach/overtake us].
We ·wait [hope] for the light, but ·there is only darkness now [^Llook/^Tbehold, darkness].
    We ·hope [wait] for a bright light, but ·all we have is darkness [^Lwe walk in gloom/shadows/darkness].
¹⁰ We are like the blind ·feeling our way [groping] along a wall.
    We ·feel our way [grope] as if we had no eyes.
·In the brightness of day [At midday/noon] we ·trip [stumble] as if it were ·night [evening; twilight].
    We are like dead men ·among the strong [or in desolate places].
