Psalm 59 Isaiah 59 Book 59
For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken
in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak. Consume them in wrath, consume
them, that they may not be: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the
earth. Selah.
Psalm Chapter 59 (vs. 12f)
For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips
have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness. None calleth for justice, nor any
pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and
bring forth iniquity.
Isaiah Chapter 59 (vs. 3f)
Behold, we put bits in the horses’ mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn
about their whole body. Behold also the ships, which though they be so great,
and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small
helm, whithersoever the governor listeth. Even so the tongue is a little
member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire
kindleth! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the
tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and
setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. For every
kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is
tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind: But the tongue can no man tame; it
is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
Bible Book 59 (James 3.3f)
Book 59, Isaiah 59, and Psalm 59 are all deeply integrated around the idea of the
lying wicked tongue. James devotes twenty percent of his book to this topic, and the same
theme manifests in
Isaiah 59 in a way utterly distinct from the other 65 chapters of that great book. This, and many
other supernatural links between Isaiah 59 and James are discussed in the article called
Works Righteousness.
The integration with Psalm 59 is equally impressive. Searching the entire KJV for all verses containing
the set {lying, words, speak*} within one verse of sin* yields exactly two verses. I begin with
Psalm 59.12:
For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be
taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.
Psalm 59.12
The other passage is Isaiah 59:
For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us:
for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them; In transgressing and
lying against the LORD, and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt,
conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
Isaiah 59:12-13
