16 I will bring the blind by a way that they did not know;I will lead them in paths that they have not known.I will make darkness light before themand crooked things straight.These things I will do for themand not forsake them.
17 They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed,who trust in graven images,who say to the molded images, “You are our gods.”
18 Hear, you deaf;look, you blind, that you may see.
19 Who is blind, but My servant?Or deaf, as My messenger whom I sent?Who is blind as he who is at peace with Me,and blind as the servant of the Lord?
20 You have seen many things, but you do not observe them;your ears are open, but no one hears.
21 The Lord is well pleasedfor His righteousness’ saketo magnify the law and make it honorable.
22 But this is a people robbed and despoiled;they are all snared in holes,and they are hidden in prison houses;they are for a prey,and no one delivers,for a spoil,and no one says, “Restore them.”
