1 Behold, the hand of Jehovah was not shortened from saving, and his ear heavy from hearing: 2 But your iniquities were separating between you and between your God, and your sins caused to hide the face from you from hearing. 3 For your hands were polluted with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips spake falsehood, your tongue will mutter evil. 4 None called upon justice, and none judged in truth: trusting in vanity and speaking evil, they conceived labor and brought forth vanity. 5 They plundered vipers eggs, and they will weave spiders webs: he eating from their eggs shall die, and being crushed, it shall break forth a viper. 6 Their webs shall not be for a garment, and they shall not be covered with their works: their works the works of vanity, and the work of violence in their hands. 7 Their feet will run to evil, and they will hasten to pour out innocent blood: their purposes, purposes of vanity; destruction and breaking in their highways.
