Isaiah 59 - Versions
Isaiah 59 Text (WEB)
  1. Behold, Yahweh's hand is not shortened, that it can't save; neither his ear heavy, that it can't hear:
  2. but your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.
  3. For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue mutters wickedness.
  4. None sues in righteousness, and none pleads in truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.
  5. They hatch adders' eggs, and weave the spider's web: he who eats of their eggs dies; and that which is crushed breaks out into a viper.
  6. Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.
  7. Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; desolation and destruction are in their paths.
  8. The way of peace they don't know; and there is no justice in their goings: they have made them crooked paths; whoever goes therein does not know peace.
  9. Therefore is justice far from us, neither does righteousness overtake us: we look for light, but, behold, darkness; for brightness, but we walk in obscurity.
  10. We grope for the wall like the blind; yes, we grope as those who have no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the twilight; among those who are lusty we are as dead men.
  11. We roar all like bears, and moan bitterly like doves: we look for justice, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us.
  12. For our transgressions are multiplied before you, and our sins testify against us; for our transgressions are with us, and as for our iniquities, we know them:
  13. transgressing and denying Yahweh, and turning away from following our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
  14. Justice is turned away backward, and righteousness stands afar off; for truth is fallen in the street, and uprightness can't enter.
  15. Yes, truth is lacking; and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey. Yahweh saw it, and it displeased him that there was no justice.
  16. He saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his own arm brought salvation to him; and his righteousness, it upheld him.
  17. He put on righteousness as a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation on his head; and he put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a mantle.
  18. According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, wrath to his adversaries, recompense to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompense.
  19. So shall they fear the name of Yahweh from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun; for he will come as a rushing stream, which the breath of Yahweh drives.
  20. "A Redeemer will come to Zion, and to those who turn from disobedience in Jacob," says Yahweh.
  21. "As for me, this is my covenant with them," says Yahweh. "My Spirit who is on you, and my words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your seed, nor out of the mouth of your seed's seed," says Yahweh, "from henceforth and forever."
Isaiah 59 Text (Hebrew)
  1. הן לא־קצרה יד־יהוה מהושיע ולא־כבדה אזנו משמוע׃
  2. כי אם־עונתיכם היו מבדלים בינכם לבין אלהיכם וחטאותיכם הסתירו פנים םכם משמוע׃
  3. כי כפיכם נגאלו בדם ואצבעותיכם בעון שפתותיכם דברו־שקר לשונכם עולה תהגה׃
  4. אין־קרא בצדק ואין נשפט באמונה בטוח על־תהו ודבר־שוא הרו עמל והוליד און׃
  5. ביצי צפעוני בקעו וקורי עכביש יארגו האכל מביציהם ימות והזורה תבקע אפעה׃
  6. קוריהם לא־יהיו לבגד ולא יתכסו במעשיהם מעשיהם מעשי־און ופעל חמס בכפיהם׃
  7. רגליהם לרע ירצו וימהרו לשפך דם נקי מחשבותיהם מחשבות און שד ושבר במסלותם׃
  8. דרך שלום לא ידעו ואין משפט במעגלותם נתיבותיהם עקשו להם כל דרך בה לא ידע שלום׃
  9. על־כן רחק משפט ממנו ולא תשיגנו צדקה נקוה לאור והנה־חשך לנגהות באפלות נהלך׃
  10. נגששה כעורים קיר וכאין עינים נגששה כשלנו בצהרים כנשף באשמנים כמתים׃
  11. נהמה כדבים כלנו וכיונים הגה נהגה נקוה למשפט ואין לישועה רחקה ממנו׃
  12. כי־רבו פשעינו נגדך וחטאותינו ענתה בנו כי־פשעינו אתנו ועונתינו ידענום׃
  13. פשע וכחש ביהוה ונסוג מאחר אלהינו דבר־עשק וסרה הרו והגו מלב דברי־שקר׃
  14. והסג אחור משפט וצדקה מרחוק תעמד כי־כשלה ברחוב אמת ונכחה לא־תוכל לבוא׃
  15. ותהי האמת נעדרת וסר מרע משתולל וירא יהוה וירע בעיניו כי־אין משפט׃
  16. וירא כי־אין איש וישתוםם כי אין מפגיע ותושע לו זרעו וצדקתו היא סמכתהו׃
  17. וילבש צדקה כשרין וכובע ישועה בראשו וילבש בגדי נקם תלבשת ויעט כמעיל קנאה׃
  18. כעל גמלות כעל ישלם חמה לצריו גמול לאיביו לאיים גמול ישלם׃
  19. וייראו ממערב את־שם יהוה וממזרח־שמש את־כבודו כי־יבוא כנהר צר רוח יהוה נססה בו׃
  20. ובא לציון גואל ולשבי פשע ביעקב נאם יהוה׃
  21. ואני זאת בריתי אותם אמר יהוה רוחי אשר עליך ודברי אשר־שמתי בפיך לא־ימושו מפיך ומפי זרעך ומפי זרע זרעך אמר יהוה מעתה ועד־עולם׃ ס
Isaiah 59 Text (Greek)
  1. μη ουκ ισχυει η χειρ κυριου του σωσαι η εβαρυνεν το ους αυτου του μη
  2. αλλα τα αμαρτηματα υμων διιστωσιν ανα μεσον υμων και του θεου και δια τας αμαρτιας υμων απεστρεψεν το προσωπον αυτου αφ' υμων του μη
  3. αι γαρ χειρες υμων μεμολυμμεναι αιματι και οι δακτυλοι υμων εν αμαρτιαις τα δε χειλη υμων ελαλησεν ανομιαν και η γλωσσα υμων αδικιαν
  4. ουδεις λαλει δικαια ουδε εστιν κρισις αληθινη πεποιθασιν επι ματαιοις και λαλουσιν κενα οτι κυουσιν πονον και τικτουσιν
  5. ωα ασπιδων ερρηξαν και ιστον αραχνης υφαινουσιν και ο μελλων των ωων αυτων φαγειν συντριψας ουριον ευρεν και εν αυτω
  6. ο ιστος αυτων ουκ εσται εις ιματιον ουδε μη περιβαλωνται απο των εργων αυτων τα γαρ εργα αυτων εργα
  7. οι δε ποδες αυτων επι πονηριαν τρεχουσιν ταχινοι εκχεαι αιμα και οι διαλογισμοι αυτων διαλογισμοι αφρονων συντριμμα και ταλαιπωρια εν ταις οδοις
  8. και οδον ειρηνης ουκ οιδασιν και ουκ εστιν κρισις εν ταις οδοις αυτων αι γαρ τριβοι αυτων διεστραμμεναι ας διοδευουσιν και ουκ οιδασιν
  9. δια τουτο απεστη η κρισις απ' αυτων και ου μη καταλαβη αυτους δικαιοσυνη υπομειναντων αυτων φως εγενετο αυτοις σκοτος μειναντες αυγην εν αωρια
  10. ψηλαφησουσιν ως τυφλοι τοιχον και ως ουχ υπαρχοντων οφθαλμων ψηλαφησουσιν και πεσουνται εν μεσημβρια ως εν μεσονυκτιω ως αποθνησκοντες
  11. ως αρκος και ως περιστερα αμα πορευσονται ανεμειναμεν κρισιν και ουκ εστιν σωτηρια μακραν αφεστηκεν αφ'
  12. πολλη γαρ ημων η ανομια εναντιον σου και αι αμαρτιαι ημων αντεστησαν ημιν αι γαρ ανομιαι ημων εν ημιν και τα αδικηματα ημων
  13. ησεβησαμεν και εψευσαμεθα και απεστημεν απο οπισθεν του θεου ημων ελαλησαμεν αδικα και ηπειθησαμεν εκυομεν και εμελετησαμεν απο καρδιας ημων λογους
  14. και απεστησαμεν οπισω την κρισιν και η δικαιοσυνη μακραν αφεστηκεν οτι καταναλωθη εν ταις οδοις αυτων η αληθεια και δι' ευθειας ουκ ηδυναντο
  15. και η αληθεια ηρται και μετεστησαν την διανοιαν του συνιεναι και ειδεν κυριος και ουκ ηρεσεν αυτω οτι ουκ ην
  16. και ειδεν και ουκ ην ανηρ και κατενοησεν και ουκ ην ο αντιλημψομενος και ημυνατο αυτους τω βραχιονι αυτου και τη ελεημοσυνη
  17. και ενεδυσατο δικαιοσυνην ως θωρακα και περιεθετο περικεφαλαιαν σωτηριου επι της κεφαλης και περιεβαλετο ιματιον εκδικησεως και το
  18. ως ανταποδωσων ανταποδοσιν ονειδος τοις
  19. και φοβηθησονται οι απο δυσμων το ονομα κυριου και οι απ' ανατολων ηλιου το ονομα το ενδοξον ηξει γαρ ως ποταμος βιαιος η οργη παρα κυριου ηξει μετα
  20. και ηξει ενεκεν σιων ο ρυομενος και αποστρεψει ασεβειας απο
  21. και αυτη αυτοις η παρ' εμου διαθηκη ειπεν κυριος το πνευμα το εμον ο εστιν επι σοι και τα ρηματα α εδωκα εις το στομα σου ου μη εκλιπη εκ του στοματος σου και εκ του στοματος του σπερματος σου ειπεν γαρ κυριος απο του νυν και εις τον
Isaiah 59 Text (Latin)
  1. Ecce non est abbreviata manus Domini, ut salvare nequeat ; neque aggravata est auris ejus, ut non exaudiat.
  2. Sed iniquitates vestræ diviserunt inter vos et Deum vestrum ; et peccata vestra absconderunt faciem ejus a vobis, ne exaudiret.
  3. Manus enim vestræ pollutæ sunt sanguine, et digiti vestri iniquitate ; labia vestra locuta sunt mendacium, et lingua vestra iniquitatem fatur.
  4. Non est qui invocet justitiam, neque est qui judicet vere ; sed confidunt in nihilo, et loquuntur vanitates ; conceperunt laborem, et pepererunt iniquitatem.
  5. Ova aspidum ruperunt, et telas araneæ texuerunt. Qui comederit de ovis eorum, morietur ; et quod confotum est, erumpet in regulum.
  6. Telæ eorum non erunt in vestimentum, neque operientur operibus suis ; opera eorum opera inutilia, et opus iniquitatis in manibus eorum.
  7. Pedes eorum ad malum currunt, et festinant ut effundant sanguinem innocentem ; cogitationes eorum cogitationes inutiles, vastitas et contritio in viis eorum.
  8. Viam pacis nescierunt, et non est judicium in gressibus eorum ; semitæ eorum incurvatæ sunt eis ; omnis qui calcat in eis, ignorat pacem.
  9. Propter hoc elongatum est judicium a nobis, et non apprehendet nos justitia. Exspectavimus lucem, et ecce tenebræ ; splendorem, et in tenebris ambulavimus.
  10. Palpavimus sicut cæci parietem, et quasi absque oculis attrectavimus ; impegimus meridie quasi in tenebris, in caliginosis quasi mortui.
  11. Rugiemus quasi ursi omnes, et quasi columbæ meditantes gememus : exspectavimus judicium, et non est ; salutem, et elongata est a nobis.
  12. Multiplicatæ sunt enim iniquitates nostræ coram te, et peccata nostra responderunt nobis, quia scelera nostra nobiscum et iniquitates nostras cognovimus.
  13. Peccare et mentiri contra Dominum, et aversi sumus ne iremus post tergum Dei nostri, ut loqueremur calumniam et transgressionem ; concepimus et locuti sumus de corde verba mendacii.
  14. Et conversum est retrorsum judicium, et justitia longe stetit, quia corruit in platea veritas et æquitas non potuit ingredi.
  15. Et facta est veritas in oblivionem ; et qui recessit a malo, prædæ patuit. Et vidit Dominus, et malum apparuit in oculis ejus, quia non est judicium.
  16. Et vidit quia non est vir, et aporiatus est, quia non est qui occurrat ; et salvavit sibi brachium suum, et justitia ejus ipsa confirmavit eum.
  17. Indutus est justitia ut lorica, et galea salutis in capite ejus ; indutus est vestimentis ultionis, et opertus est quasi pallio zeli,
  18. sicut ad vindictam quasi ad retributionem indignationis hostibus suis, et vicissitudinem inimicis suis ; insulis vicem reddet.
  19. Et timebunt qui ab occidente nomen Domini, et qui ab ortu solis gloriam ejus, cum venerit quasi fluvius violentus quem spiritus Domini cogit ;
  20. et venerit Sion redemptor, et eis qui redeunt ab iniquitate in Jacob, dicit Dominus.
  21. Hoc fœdus meum cum eis, dicit Dominus : spiritus meus qui est in te, et verba mea quæ posui in ore tuo, non recedent de ore tuo, et de ore seminis tui, et de ore seminis seminis tui, dicit Dominus, amodo et usque in sempiternum.
Isaiah 59 Text (KJV)
  1. Behold, the LORD's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:
  2. But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.
  3. For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness.
  4. None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.
  5. They hatch cockatrice' eggs, and weave the spider's web: he that eateth of their eggs dieth, and that which is crushed breaketh out into a viper.
  6. Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.
  7. Their feet run to evil, and they make hast to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths.
  8. The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goeth therein shall not know peace.
  9. Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth justice overtake us: we wait for light, but behold obscurity; for brightness, but we walk in darkness.
  10. We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the night; we are in desolate places as dead men.
  11. We roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us.
  12. For 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;
  13. In 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.
  14. And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter.
  15. Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment.
  16. And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him.
  17. For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.
  18. According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence.
  19. So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.
  20. And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.
  21. As for me, this 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.
Isaiah 59
