Isaiah 42:19-21
Living Bible
19 Who in all the world is as blind as my own people,[a] who are designed to be my messengers of truth? Who is so blind as my “dedicated one,” the “servant of the Lord”? 20 You see and understand what is right but won’t heed nor do it; you hear, but you won’t listen.
21 The Lord has magnified his law and made it truly glorious. Through it he had planned to show the world that he is righteous.

your ears are open, but you do not listen.”(E)
