Isaiah 42:21-22
New American Standard Bible
21 The Lord was pleased for His righteousness’ sake
To make the Law (A)great and glorious.
22 But this is a people plundered and pillaged;
All of them are (B)trapped in [a]caves,
Or are (C)hidden away in prisons;
They have become plunder, with no one to save them,
And spoils with no one to say, “Give them back!”
