Isaiah 59:14–17

14 Justice is turned back,

and righteousness stands far off.

For truth has stumbled in the public square,

and honesty cannot enter.

15 Truth is missing,

and whoever turns from evil is plundered.

The Lord saw that there was no justice,

and he was offended.

16 He saw that there was no man—

he was amazed that there was no one interceding;g

so his own arm brought salvation,

and his own righteousness supported him.

17 He put on righteousness as body armor,

and a helmet of salvation on his head;h

he put on garments of vengeance for clothing,

and he wrapped himself in zeal as in a cloak.i
