Isaiah
Isaiah 59 ©
1 The calamities of the Jews not owing to want of saving power in God, but to their own enormous sins. 16 Salvation cometh of God only. 20 The covenant of the Redeemer.
iTheir webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: jtheir works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.
sFor our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them;
tIn transgressing and lying against the LORD, and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
bAccording to their 8deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to cthe islands he will repay recompence.
dSo shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. eWhen the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall 9lift up a *standard against him.
As for me, gthis is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever.
