Context Readings

Rampant Transgression

2 But your wrongs have separated you from your God. Your sins have made him hide his face so that he does not even hear you. 3 For your hands are defiled with blood
And your fingers with iniquity;
Your lips have spoken falsehood,
Your tongue mutters wickedness.
4 No one calls for justice and no one pleads his case truthfully. People trust pointless arguments and speak lies. They conceive trouble and give birth to evil.
