In context
18 Ye deaf hear! And ye blind look around that ye may see,
19 Who is blind if not my Servant? Or deaf, like, my messenger whom I send? Who is, blind, like an intimate friend? Or blind like the Servant of Yahweh?
20 Seeing many things, yet thou heedest not, Opening the ears yet he heareth not,
21 Yahweh, is well-pleased for his own righteousness’ sake, He magnifieth instruction and maketh it majestic.
22 But, that, is a people preyed upon and plundered, Snared in holes, all of them, And, in houses of restraint, concealed,—They have become a prey, and there is none to deliver,—A booty, and there is none to say—Restore!
23 Who among you, will give ear to this,—Let him hearken and hear, for an aftertime?
24 Who gave, as a booty, Jacob. And, Israel, to them who were ready to take prey? Was it not, Yahweh? He against whom we have sinned, And they were not willing, in his ways, to walk, Neither hearkened they to his instruction?
