Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths.

The verse 7 is found in chapter 59 of Isaiah. Sin is described as a barrier produced by the people’s own iniquity, not by a lack of power in God. Injustice, violence, and lies contaminate collective life. In the absence of an intercessor, Yahweh himself intervenes with justice and establishes a covenant through his Spirit and word.

Ihre Füße laufen zum Bösen, und sie sind schnell, unschuldig Blut zu vergießen; ihre Gedanken sind Unrecht, ihr Weg ist eitel Verderben und Schaden;
Sus pies corren al mal, y se apresuran para derramar la sangre inocente; sus pensamientos, pensamientos de iniquidad, destrucción y quebrantamiento en sus caminos.
Sus pies corren al mal y se apresuran a derramar sangre inocente. Sus pensamientos son pensamientos de iniquidad; desolación y ruina hay en sus caminos.
Leurs pieds courent au mal, Et ils ont hâte de répandre le sang innocent; Leurs pensées sont des pensées d'iniquité, Le ravage et la ruine sont sur leur route.
I lor piedi corrono al male, e si affrettano per andare a spandere il sangue innocente; i lor pensieri son pensieri d’iniquità; nelle loro strade vi è guastamento e ruina.
Os seus pés correm para o mal, e se apressam para derramarem o sangue inocente; os seus pensamentos são pensamentos de iniqüidade; destruição e quebrantamento há nas suas estradas.
他們的腳奔跑行惡, 急速流無辜者的血; 他們的思想全是惡念, 走過的路盡是破壞與毀滅。
