Isaiah 59:12

Rampant Transgression

¹¹ We all growl like bears, and mourn greatly like doves: we look for justice, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us. ¹² For our transgressions are multiplied before you, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them; ¹³ In transgressing and lying against the LORD, and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
