Isaiah 59:9-11

9ThereforeH5921H3651 1justiceH4941 is farH7368 from us, And righteousnessH6666 does not overtakeH5381 us; We 2hopeH6960 for lightH216, but beholdH2009, darknessH2822, For brightnessH5054, but we walkH1980 in gloomH653.10We 3gropeH1659 along the wallH7023 like blindH5787 menH5787, We gropeH1659 like those who haveH369 noH369 eyesH5869; We 4stumbleH3782 at middayH6672 as in the twilightH5399, Among those whoH820 are vigorousH820 we are 5like deadH4191 men.11AllH3605 of us growlH1993 like bearsH1677, And 6moanH1897 sadlyH1897 like dovesH3123; We hopeH6960 for 7justiceH4941, but thereH369 is noneH369, For salvationH3444, but it is farH7368 from us.
