1Yo, the Lord’s hand ain’t short, He can totally save; His ear ain’t heavy, He can hear you, no cap.

2But your bad vibes have put a wall between you and God, and your sins have hid His face, so He ain't listening.

3Your hands are grimy with blood, your fingers are sus with sin; you’re spitting lies and your tongue is acting wild.

4Nobody's calling for justice or keeping it real; they’re vibing with lies, plotting mischief, and that’s just savage.

5They’re hatching some shady eggs and spinning a web; if you munch on their eggs, it’s game over, and what’s crushed turns into a snake.

6Their webs won't turn into drip, and they can't cover up their messy work: it’s all bad vibes, and they’re just causing chaos.

7Their feet are running towards evil, rushing to spill innocent blood; their thoughts are all twisted; waste and destruction are their jam.

8They don’t even know the way to peace; no judgment in their moves; they’ve made their paths all crooked, and if you walk them, good luck finding peace.

9So judgment is far away, and justice is ghosting us; we’re waiting for light, but it’s just dark times, fr.

10We’re feeling our way like the blind, stumbling in the daylight like it’s night; we’re in empty places, like we’re living ghosts.

11We’re roaring like bears and crying like doves; looking for justice but it’s MIA, and salvation is nowhere to be found.

12Our sins are piling up, and they’re totally calling us out; we know our wrongs, and they’re right here with us.

13We’re out here lying to the Lord, turning away from God, speaking oppression and revolt, and spitting falsehoods straight from the heart.

14And judgment is just taking a step back, and justice is chilling far away; truth has hit the ground, and fairness can’t even get in.

15Yeah, truth is flopping; if you step away from evil, you’re just a target; the Lord noticed and wasn’t vibing with the lack of judgment.

16He saw there was no one to step up, and it blew His mind; so His arm brought salvation, and His righteousness had His back.

17He rocked righteousness like a breastplate and a helmet of salvation on His head; He put on vengeance like a fit and was all about that zeal.

18He’s gonna dish out what’s deserved, bringing fury to His foes and payback to His enemies; even the islands will get their due.

19They’ll fear the Lord’s name from the west, and His glory from the sunrise; when the enemy rolls in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will raise a standard.

20And the Redeemer is coming to Zion, for those who turn from their wrongs in Jacob, says the Lord.

21As for me, this is my deal with them, says the Lord; My spirit’s on you, and the words I dropped in your mouth won’t dip out, not now, not ever.

1Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:

2But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.

3For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness.

4None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.

5They hatch cockatrice’ eggs, and weave the spider’s web: he that eateth of their eggs dieth, and that which is crushed breaketh out into a viper.

6Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.

7Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths.

8The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goeth therein shall not know peace.

9Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth justice overtake us: we wait for light, but behold obscurity; for brightness, but we walk in darkness.

10We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the night; we are in desolate places as dead men.

11We roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us.

12For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them;

13In 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.

14And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter.

15Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the Lord saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment.

16And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him.

17For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.

18According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence.

19So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.

20And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the Lord.

21As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the Lord; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the Lord, from henceforth and for ever.
