Isaiah 59:5 in Context — Isaiah 59
3 Porque vuestras manos están contaminadas de sangre, y vuestros dedos de iniquidad; vuestros labios pronuncian mentira, habla maldad vuestra lengua.
4 No hay quien clame por la justicia, ni quien juzgue por la verdad: confían en vanidad, y hablan vanidades; conciben trabajo, y paren iniquidad.
5 Ponen huevos de áspides, y tejen telas de arañas: el que comiere de sus huevos, morirá; y [si] lo apretaren, saldrá un basilisco.
6 Sus telas no servirán para vestir, ni de sus obras serán cubiertos: sus obras son obras de iniquidad, y obra de rapiña está en sus manos.
7 Sus pies corren al mal, y se apresuran para derramar la sangre inocente; sus pensamientos, pensamientos de iniquidad, destrucción y quebrantamiento en sus caminos.
