Isaiah 59:15-17

Good News Translation

¹⁵ There is so little honesty that those who stop doing evil find themselves the victims of crime.”

The Lord Prepares to Rescue His People

The Lord has seen this, and he is displeased that there is no justice. ^16 (A)He is astonished to see that there is no one to help the oppressed. So he will use his own power to rescue them and to win the victory. ^17 (B)He will wear justice like a coat of armor and saving power like a helmet. He will clothe himself with the strong desire to set things right and to punish and avenge the wrongs that people suffer.
