Isaiah 59:9-11
Evangelical Heritage Version
9 Therefore justice is far from us,
and righteousness does not reach us.
We hope for light, but look, there is only darkness.
We hope for bright light, but we walk around in the darkest gloom.
10 We grope along a wall like blind men.
We grope like people with no eyes.
We stumble at noon as if it were twilight.
Among the healthy, we are like dead men.
11 We growl like bears—all of us—
and like doves we always mourn.
We hope for justice, but there is none.
We hope for salvation, but it is far from us.
Isaiah 59:9-11
New International Version
9 So justice is far from us,
and righteousness does not reach us.
We look for light, but all is darkness;(A)
for brightness, but we walk in deep shadows.
10 Like the blind(B) we grope along the wall,
feeling our way like people without eyes.
At midday we stumble(C) as if it were twilight;
among the strong, we are like the dead.(D)
11 We all growl like bears;
we moan mournfully like doves.(E)
We look for justice, but find none;
for deliverance, but it is far away.
