God Rebukes Israel

18 “Listen, you deaf people,
    and look up, you blind people, so you may see!
19 Who is blind except my servant,
    or deaf like my messenger I am sending?
Who is blind like the one committed to me,
    or blind like the Lord’s servant?
20 You’ve seen[a] many things, but you pay no[b] attention.
    His ears are open,[c] but he doesn’t listen.
