1Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, 2But your iniquities have built barriers 3For your hands are stained with blood, 4No one calls for justice; 5They hatch the eggs of vipers 6Their cobwebs cannot be made into clothing, 7Their feet run to evil; 8The way of peace they have not known, 9Therefore justice is far from us, 10Like the blind, we feel our way along the wall, 11We all growl like bears 12For our transgressions are multiplied before You, 13rebelling and denying the LORD, 14So justice is turned away, 15Truth is missing, 16He saw that there was no man; 17He put on righteousness like a breastplate,
