Isaiah 42:18-25
181HearH8085, you who are deafH2795! And lookH5027, you who are blindH5787, so that you may seeH7200.19WhoH4310 is blindH5787 but My 2servantH5650, Or so deafH2795 as My 3messengerH4397 whom I sendH7971? WhoH4310 is so blindH5787 as one who is 45at peaceH7999 with Me, Or so blindH5787 as the servantH5650 of the LordH3068?206You have seenH7200 manyH7227 thingsH7227, but you do not retainH8104 them; Your earsH241 are openH6491, but noH3808 oneH3808 hearsH8085.21The LordH3068 was pleasedH2654 for His righteousness’H6664 sakeH4616 To makeH1431 the LawH8451 7greatH1431 and gloriousH142.22But thisH1931 is a peopleH5971 plunderedH962 and pillagedH8154; AllH3605 of them are 8trappedH6351 in 9cavesH2352, Or are 10hiddenH2244 away in prisonsH3608; They have becomeH1961 plunderH957, with noH369 oneH369 to saveH5337 them, And spoilsH4933 with noH369 oneH369 to sayH559, “GiveH7725 them backH7725!”
23WhoH4310 among you will listenH238 to thisH2088? Who will payH7181 attentionH7181 and listenH8085 in the timeH268 toH268 comeH268?24WhoH4310 gaveH5414 JacobH3290 upH5414 for spoilsH4933, and IsraelH3478 to plunderersH962? Was it not the LordH3068, against whomH2098 we have sinnedH2398, And in whose waysH1870 they 11wereH14 not willingH14 to walkH1980, And whose LawH8451 they did not 12obeyH8085?25So He pouredH8210 outH8210 on him the heatH2534 of His angerH639 And the 13fiercenessH5807 of battleH4421; And it setH3857 him aflameH3857 allH4480H5439 aroundH5439, Yet he did not recognizeH3045 it; And it burnedH1197 him, but he 1415paidH7760 noH3808 attentionH5921H3820.
