15 I will wither mountains and valleys,and I will dry up all their vegetation.I will turn rivers into deserts,and I will dry up pools.
16 I will make the blind walk a road they don’t know,and I will guide them in paths they don’t know.But I will make darkness before them into lightand rough places into level ground.These things I will do;I won’t abandon them.
17 Turned backward, utterly shamedare those who trust in idols,who say to a cast image,"You are our god!"
18 Hear, deaf ones,and blind ones, look and see!
19 Who is blind if not my servantand deaf like my messenger whom I send?Who is blind like the restored one,blind like the servant of the Lord?
20 You have seen many things, but don’t keep watch.With ears open, you don’t hear.
21 The Lord desired for the sake of his righteousnessto expand and glorify the Instruction.
