19 aWho is blind but My servant,
Or deaf as My messenger whom I send?
Who is blind as he who is perfect,
And blind as the Lord’s servant?
Or deaf as My messenger whom I send?
Who is blind as he who is perfect,
And blind as the Lord’s servant?

22 But this is a people robbed and plundered;
All of them are1 snared in holes,
And they are hidden in prison houses;
They are for prey, and no one delivers;
For plunder, and no one says, “Restore!”

They are for prey, and no one delivers;
For plunder, and no one says, “Restore!”

Was it not the Lord,
He against whom we have sinned?
aFor they would not walk in His ways,
Nor were they obedient to His law.

Nor were they obedient to His law.
25 Therefore He has poured on him the fury of His anger
And the strength of battle;
aIt has set him on fire all around,
bYet he did not know;
And it burned him,
Yet he did not take it to cheart.
