Isaiah 59:3

Rampant Transgression

² But your sinful acts have alienated you from your God; your sins have caused him to reject you and not listen to your prayers. ³ For your hands are stained with blood and your fingers with sin; your lips speak lies, your tongue utters malicious words. ⁴ No one is concerned about justice; no one sets forth his case truthfully. They depend on false words and tell lies; they conceive of oppression and give birth to sin.
