Bible verse
But your iniquities have built barriers between you and your God, and your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He does not hear.
Isaiah 59:2 · BSB
The verses around it, from Isaiah 59.
1 Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor His ear too dull to hear.
2 But your iniquities have built barriers between you and your God, and your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He does not hear.
3 For your hands are stained with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, and your tongue mutters injustice.
4 No one calls for justice; no one pleads his case honestly. They rely on empty pleas; they tell lies; they conceive mischief and give birth to iniquity.
5 They hatch the eggs of vipers and weave a spider’s web. Whoever eats their eggs will die; crack one open, and a viper is hatched.
6 Their cobwebs cannot be made into clothing, and they cannot cover themselves with their works. Their deeds are sinful deeds, and acts of violence are in their hands.
