Isaiah 42:21-23
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
Israel’s Disobedience
21 The Lord was pleased, for the sake of his righteousness,
to magnify his teaching and make it glorious.(A)
22 But this is a people robbed and plundered;
all of them are trapped in holes
and hidden in prisons;
they have become a prey with no one to rescue,
a spoil with no one to say, “Restore!”(B)
23 Who among you will give heed to this;
who will attend and listen for the time to come?

21 It pleased the Lord
for the sake(A) of his righteousness
to make his law(B) great and glorious.
22 But this is a people plundered(C) and looted,
all of them trapped in pits(D)
or hidden away in prisons.(E)
They have become plunder,
with no one to rescue them;(F)
they have been made loot,
with no one to say, “Send them back.”
23 Which of you will listen to this
or pay close attention(G) in time to come?
