59:14Justice is driven back;
godliness29 stands far off.
Indeed,30 honesty stumbles in the city square
and morality is not even able to enter.
59:15Honesty has disappeared;
the one who tries to avoid evil is robbed.
The Lord watches and is displeased,31
for there is no justice.

ESVEnglish Standard Version
Justice is turned back,
and righteousness stands far away;
for truth has stumbled in the public squares,
and uprightness cannot enter.
Truth is lacking,
and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey.
The Lord saw it, and it displeased him
that there was no justice.

NIVNew International Version (2011)
So justice is driven back,
and righteousness stands at a distance;
truth has stumbled in the streets,
honesty cannot enter.
Truth is nowhere to be found,
and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey.
The Lord looked and was displeased
that there was no justice.

Justice is turned back,

Our courts oppose the righteous,
and justice is nowhere to be found.
Truth stumbles in the streets,
and honesty has been outlawed.
Yes, truth is gone,
and anyone who renounces evil is attacked.
The Lord looked and was displeased
to find there was no justice.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
And justice is pushed back,
and righteousness stands afar;
for truth stumbles in the public square,
and straightforwardness is unable to enter,
and truth is missing,
and he who turns aside from evil is plundered.
And Yahweh saw,
and it was displeasing in his eyes that there was no justice

KJV 1900King James Version
And judgment is turned away backward,
And justice standeth afar off:
For truth is fallen in the street,
And equity cannot enter.
Yea, truth faileth;
And he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey:
And the Lord saw it, and it displeased him
That there was no judgment.
