Isaías 59:1-9

Listen to Isaías 59:1-9
1 He aquƭ, no se ha acortado la mano del SEƑOR para salvar; ni se ha endurecido su oƭdo para oƭr.
2 Pero vuestras iniquidades han hecho separación entre vosotros y vuestro Dios, y vuestros pecados le han hecho esconder su rostro de vosotros para no escucharos.
3 Porque vuestras manos estƔn manchadas de sangre, y vuestros dedos de iniquidad; vuestros labios hablan mentira, vuestra lengua murmura maldad.
4 No hay quien clame con justicia ni quien abogue con honestidad. Confían en la confusión, y hablan falsedades; conciben malicia, y dan a luz iniquidad.
5 Incuban huevos de Ɣspides y tejen telas de araƱa; el que come de sus huevos muere, y del que es aplastado sale una vƭbora.
6 Sus telas no servirƔn de vestidos, ni se cubrirƔn con sus obras; sus obras son obras de iniquidad, y actos de violencia hay en sus manos.
7 Sus pies corren al mal, y se apresuran a derramar sangre inocente; sus pensamientos son pensamientos de iniquidad, desolación y destrucción hay en sus caminos.
8 Camino de paz no conocen, y no hay justicia en sus senderos; han torcido a su favor las sendas, cualquiera que ande en ellas no conoce la paz.
9 Por tanto el derecho estĆ” lejos de nosotros, y no nos alcanza la justicia; esperamos luz, y he aquĆ­ tinieblas, claridad, pero andamos en oscuridad.

Isaías 59:1-9 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO ISAIAH 59

As the former chapter declares the hypocrisy and formality of professors of religion; this expresses the errors and heresies, immorality and profaneness, which shall prevail before the spiritual reign of Christ, or the latter day glory begins; which is so fully described in the next chapter. Reasons are given of God's withdrawing his presence from a professing people, which were not want of power and readiness in him, but their own sins and transgressions, Isa 59:1,2 which are enumerated, such as murder, rapine, lies Isa 59:3-8 for which the judgments of God were upon them, darkness, distress, and misery, of which they were sensible, Isa 59:9-11 and confess their sins and transgressions, Isa 59:12,13 and lament their wretched state and condition, which was displeasing to God, Isa 59:14,15 who is represented as appearing for their salvation; moved to it by their want of help, and the oppression of their enemies, in which he shows his power, justice, zeal, grace, and goodness, Isa 59:16-18 the consequence of which shall be the conversion and salvation of many, owing to the efficacy of the divine Spirit, and to the spiritual coming of the Redeemer, Isa 59:19,20, and the chapter is closed with a promise of the continuance of the Spirit of God, and the Gospel of Christ in his church, unto the end of the world, Isa 59:21.
