Isaiah 59:14–17

• A 14 And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off:
  • B for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter.
  • B' 15 Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey:
• A' 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:

• A therefore his arm brought salvation unto him;
  • B and his righteousness, it sustained him.
  • B' 17 For he put on righteousness as a breastplate,
• A' and an helmet of salvation upon his head;
