You speak lies, and you mutter wicked things.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/isaiah/59-4.htm"><b>4</b></a></span>No one calls for justice, and no one pleads his case truthfully. People trust pointless arguments and speak lies. They conceive trouble and give birth to evil.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/isaiah/59-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>They hatch viper eggs and weave spiderwebs.
