1 Listen! The lord’s arm is not too weak to save you,nor is his ear too deaf to hear you call.
2 It’s your sins that have cut you off from God.Because of your sins, he has turned awayand will not listen anymore.
3 Your hands are the hands of murderers,and your fingers are filthy with sin.Your lips are full of lies,and your mouth spews corruption.
4 No one cares about being fair and honest.The people’s lawsuits are based on lies.They conceive evil deedsand then give birth to sin.
5 They hatch deadly snakesand weave spiders’ webs.Whoever eats their eggs will die;whoever cracks them will hatch a viper.
6 Their webs can’t be made into clothing,and nothing they do is productive.All their activity is filled with sin,and violence is their trademark.
7 Their feet run to do evil,and they rush to commit murder.They think only about sinning.Misery and destruction always follow them.
