Isaiah 59:12-15
(Wycliffe Bible)
For whi oure wickidnessis ben multiplied bifore thee, and oure synnes answeriden to vs; for our grete trespassis ben with vs, and we knewen oure wickidnessis,
13 to do synne, and to lie ayens the Lord. And we ben turned awei, that we yeden not aftir the bak of oure God, that we speken fals caleng, and trespassyng. We conseyueden, and spaken of herte wordis of leesyng; and doom was turned abak,
14 and riytfulnesse stood fer; for whi treuthe felle doun in the street, and equite miyt not entre.
15 And treuthe was maad in to foryetyng, and he that yede awei fro yuel, was opyn to robbyng. And the Lord siy, and it apperide yuel in hise iyen, for ther is no doom.

translation:

For why our wickedness been multiplied before thee, and our sins answered to us; for our great trespasses been with us, and we knew our wickedness,
13 to do sin, and to lie against the Lord. And we be turned away, that we went not after the back of our God, that we speak false challenge, and trespassing. We conceived, and spake of heart words of leasing; and doom was turned back,
14 and rightfulness stood for; for why truth fell down in the street, and equity might not enter.
15 And truth was made into forgetting, and he that went away from evil, was open to robbing. And the Lord saw, and it appeared evil in his eyes, for there is no doom.

summary:

The nation finally voices its condition: “Therefore justice is far from us… we grope like the blind”. Truth falls in the streets; honesty cannot enter.

Historical Background

Isaiah ministered in the late eighth century BC, confronting Judah’s moral collapse under kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah. Though the northern kingdom had fallen to Assyria, Judah kept repeating the same sins—idolatry, injustice, and reliance on foreign alliances. Isaiah 59 may echo events late in Hezekiah’s reign or serve as a prophetic mirror for any generation drifting from God; its timeless language lets post-exilic readers hear the same rebuke.

Practical Application
1. Personal responsibility: God’s power is never the issue; unconfessed sin is.
2. Social justice: Followers of Christ must ensure courts, businesses, and families reflect honesty and mercy.
3. Hope in the Redeemer: When human efforts fail, the LORD Himself steps in—ultimately fulfilled in Jesus.
4. Embrace the covenant: Hold fast to Scripture and rely on the Holy Spirit; they are God’s permanent gifts to His people.

Practical Applications:
Self-Examination
Regularly examine your life for any barriers of sin that may be hindering your relationship with God.

Seek Justice and Righteousness
Actively pursue justice and righteousness in your daily interactions, reflecting God’s character in a world often marked by injustice.

Embrace God’s Redemption
Trust in God’s promise of redemption and allow His Spirit and Word to guide your life.

Intercessory Prayer
Pray for those who are lost in sin, that they may experience God’s salvation and transformation.

Isaiah 59 is a powerful chapter in the Bible that brings attention to the serious impact of sin and the subsequent separation it causes between humanity and God. Isaiah, addressing the people of Israel, emphasizes God’s dissatisfaction with the prevalent injustice, and outlines the divine promise of a Redeemer who will intervene and establish a lasting covenant of salvation and peace.

hope you have a great day!
