Isaiah 42:16-21

16I will lead blind Israel down a new path, guiding them along an unfamiliar way. I will brighten the darkness before them and smooth out the road ahead of them. Yes, I will indeed do these things; I will not forsake them.

17But those who trust in idols, who say, ‘You are our gods,’ will be turned away in shame.

18“Listen, you who are deaf! Look and see, you blind!

19Who is as blind as my own people, my servant? Who is as deaf as my messenger? Who is as blind as my chosen people, the servant of the Lord?

20You see and recognize what is right but refuse to act on it. You hear with your ears, but you don’t really listen.”

21Because he is righteous, the Lord has exalted his glorious law.
