And righteousness stands far away;
For truth has stumbled in the street,
And uprightness cannot enter.

Why do You make me see iniquity,
And cause me to look on wickedness?
Yes, destruction and violence are before me;

Strife exists and contention arises.

Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and have them put to death.
