18 You deaf, hear; and you blind, look to see. 19 Who [is] blind but My servant? And deaf as My messenger I send? Who [is] blind as he who is at peace, || Indeed, blind, as the servant of YHWH? 20 Seeing many things, and you do not observe, || Opening ears, and he does not hear. 21 YHWH has delight for the sake of His righteousness, || He magnifies law, and makes honorable. 22 And this [is] a people seized and spoiled, || Snared in holes—all of them, || And they were hidden in houses of restraint, || They have been for a prey, || And there is no deliverer, || A spoil, and none is saying, “Restore.” 23 Who among you gives ear [to] this? Attends, and hears afterward? 24 Who has given Jacob for a spoil, || And Israel to the spoilers? Is it not YHWH—He against whom we sinned? Indeed, they have not been willing to walk in His ways, || Nor have they listened to His law. 25 And He pours fury on him, || His anger, and the strength of battle, || And it sets him on fire all around, || And he has not known, || And it burns against him, and he does not lay it to heart!
