Isaiah 42:18-22

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁸ Listen, you deaf people.
Look, you blind people, so that you can see.
¹⁹ Who is blind except my servant
or deaf like the messenger I send?
Who is blind like the one who has my trust
or blind like the servant of the Lord?
²⁰ You have seen much, but you do not observe anything.
Your ears are open, but you hear nothing.
²¹ The Lord is pleased because he does what is right.
He praises the greatness of his teachings and makes them glorious.
²² But these people are robbed and looted.
They are all trapped in pits and hidden in prisons.
They have become prey with no one to rescue them.
They have become loot with no one to say, “Give it back.”
