ગુજરાતીયશાયા ૫૯:૧૫
વિશ્વસનીયતા દૂર થઈ છે અને જે કોઈ દુષ્ટતાથી પાછો ફરે છે તે પોતે તેનો ભોગ બને છે. યહોવાહે જોયું કે કંઈ ઇનસાફ નથી એ તેમને માઠું લાગ્યું.
हिन्दीयशायाह ५९:१५
हाँ, सच्चाई खो गई, और जो बुराई से भागता है वह शिकार हो जाता है। यह देखकर यहोवा ने बुरा माना, क्योंकि न्याय जाता रहा।

In context

13transgressing and denying the LORD, and turning away from following our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.

14Justice is turned away backward, and righteousness stands far away; for truth has fallen in the street, and uprightness can’t enter.

15Yes, truth is lacking; and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey. The LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no justice.

16He saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor. Therefore his own arm brought salvation to him; and his righteousness sustained him.

17He put on righteousness as a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation on his head. He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a mantle.
