19 Who is blind, but my slave? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? Who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the slave of the Lord,
20 who sees many things and does not warn; who opens his ears and does not hear.
21 The Lord, jealous for his righteousness, will magnify the law and enlarge it.
22 Therefore this people is robbed and spoiled; all of them shall be snared in holes and hid in prison houses; they shall be for a prey, and no one delivers; for a spoil, and no one saith, Restore.
23 Who among you will give ear to this? Who will warn and consider regarding the time to come?
24 Who gave Jacob for a spoil and Israel to the robbers? Did not the Lord? Because we sinned against him, and they did not desire to walk in his ways, neither did they hearken unto his law.
25 Therefore he has poured upon him the fury of his anger and the strength of battle; he put fire round about him, yet he was careless; and it set him on fire, yet he did not lay it to heart.
