Isaiah 59:10-12
The Voice
10 We are left to stumble along, grabbing at whatever seems solid,
like the blind finding their way down a strange and threatening street.
In broad daylight—when we should have sight—we stumble and fall as in the dark.
We are already like the dead among those brimming with health.
11 We growl like bears and moan like doves.
We hope that maybe, just maybe, it will all turn out right;
But it doesn’t. We look for liberation, but it’s too far away.
12 For our wrongdoing runs too deep before You.
Our sins stack up against us—sure evidence of our guilt.
For our offenses are always with us; they are insidious and lasting, as You know.
Our guilt says it all. We know it, too.
Isaiah 59:10-12
New International Version
10 Like the blind(A) we grope along the wall,
feeling our way like people without eyes.
At midday we stumble(B) as if it were twilight;
among the strong, we are like the dead.(C)
11 We all growl like bears;
we moan mournfully like doves.(D)
We look for justice, but find none;
for deliverance, but it is far away.
