Isaiah 59v1-4

Heavenly Father
give us grace today to speak the truth, and seek after it.

¹ Behold, Yahweh’s hand is not shortened, that it can’t save;
    nor his ear dull, that it can’t hear.
² But your iniquities have separated you and your God,
    and your sins have hidden his face from you,
    so that he will not hear.
³ For your hands are defiled with blood,
    and your fingers with iniquity.
Your lips have spoken lies.
    Your tongue mutters wickedness.
⁴ No one sues in righteousness,
    and no one pleads in truth.
They trust in vanity,
    and speak lies.
They conceive mischief,
    and give birth to iniquity.
