Isaiah 42:22-24

New American Standard Bible 1995

²² But this is a people plundered and despoiled;
All of them are ^(A)trapped in ^[a]caves,
Or are ^(B)hidden away in prisons;
They have become a prey with none to deliver them,
And a spoil, with none to say, “Give them back!”

²³ Who among you will give ear to this?
Who will give heed and listen hereafter?
²⁴ Who gave Jacob up for spoil, and Israel to plunderers?
Was it not the Lord, against whom we have sinned,
And in whose ways they ^(C)were not willing to walk,
And whose law they did not ^(D)obey?
