Isaiah 42:19-21

New International Reader's Version

¹⁹ The people of Israel serve me. But who is more blind than they are?
    Who is more deaf than the messengers I send?
Who is more blind than the one who has promised to be faithful to me?
    Who is more blind than the servant of the Lord?
²⁰ Israel, you have seen many things.
    But you do not pay any attention to me.
Your ears are open.
    But you do not listen to anything I say.”
²¹ The Lord wanted his people to see
    how great and glorious his law is.
He wanted to show them
    that he always does what is right.
