15 When you ^espread out your hands,
I will hide my eyes from you;
^feven though you make many prayers,
I will not listen;
^gyour hands are full of blood.

Isaiah 59:3-6

3 ^hFor your hands are defiled with blood
and your fingers with iniquity;
your lips have spoken lies;
your tongue mutters wickedness.
4 ⁱNo one enters suit justly;
no one goes to law honestly;
they rely on empty pleas, they speak lies,
^jthey conceive mischief and give birth to iniquity.
5 They hatch adders’ eggs;
they weave the spider’s web;
he who eats their eggs dies,
and from one that is crushed a viper is hatched.
6 ^kTheir webs will not serve as clothing;
men will not cover themselves with what they make.
Their works are works of iniquity,
and deeds of violence are in their hands.
