Isaiah 42:18-25

18“Hear, you deaf; And look, you blind, that you may see.

19Who is blind but My servant, Or deaf as My messenger whom I send? Who is blind as he who is perfect, And blind as the Lord’s servant?

20Seeing many things, but you do not observe; Opening the ears, but he does not hear.”

21The Lord is well pleased for His righteousness’ sake; He will exalt the law and make it honorable.

22But this is a people robbed and plundered; All of them are snared in holes, And they are hidden in prison houses; They are for prey, and no one delivers; For plunder, and no one says, “Restore!”

23Who among you will give ear to this? Who will listen and hear for the time to come?

24Who gave Jacob for plunder, and Israel to the robbers? Was it not the Lord, He against whom we have sinned? For they would not walk in His ways, Nor were they obedient to His law.

25Therefore He has poured on him the fury of His anger And the strength of battle; It has set him on fire all around, Yet he did not know; And it burned him, Yet he did not take it to heart.
