²⁹ και δεν θελω κρυψει πλεον το προσωπον μου απ' αυτων, διοτι εξεχεα το πνευμα μου επι τον οικον Ισραηλ, λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος.

¹⁴ Και ηλθον να σε καμω να καταλαβης τι θελει συμβη εις τον λαον σου εν ταις εσχαταις ημεραις· διοτι η ορασις ειναι ετι δια πολλας ημερας.

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.
