“Their feet run to evil,and they hurry to shed innocent blood.Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity.Desolation and destruction are in their paths.”
Isaiah 59:7 (WEB)
Context Reading
5They hatch adders’ eggsand weave the spider’s web.He who eats of their eggs dies;and that which is crushed breaks out into a viper. 6Their webs won’t become garments.They won’t cover themselves with their works.Their works are works of iniquity,and acts of violence are in their hands. 7Their feet run to evil,and they hurry to shed innocent blood.Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity.Desolation and destruction are in their paths. 8They don’t know the way of peace;and there is no justice in their ways.They have made crooked paths for themselves;whoever goes in them doesn’t know peace. 9Therefore justice is far from us,and righteousness doesn’t overtake us.We look for light, but see darkness;for brightness, but we walk in obscurity.
