Isaiah 59:14 — Awadhi

हमसे नेकी क पाछे ढकेला गवा। निस्पच्छता दूर ही खड़ी रही। गलियन मँ सच्चाई गिर पड़ी रही माना नगर मँ अच्छाई क प्रवेस नाहीं भवा।

What Does This Mean?

This verse from Isaiah 59:14 tells us that in a society, judgment and justice are hard to find because truth and fairness are missing. The prophet Isaiah is speaking, and he's showing how bad things are when people don't follow what's right.

Living It Out Today

In a modern scenario, this verse can apply to a workplace where bosses ignore unfair practices, leading to a toxic environment. Just like in Isaiah's time, when truth and justice are absent, the whole system can break down.
