Isaiah 59:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 Their feet turn to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are wicked thoughts: desolation and destruction is in their paths.
8 The way of peace they know not, and there is none equity in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goeth therein, shall not know peace.
9 Therefore is [a]judgment far from us, neither doth [b]justice come near unto us: we wait for light, but lo, it is darkness: for brightness, but we walk in darkness.
