Isaiah 42:18-20
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
18 You deaf ones, listen,[a]
you blind ones, look and see!
19 Who is blind but my servant,
or deaf like the messenger I send?
Who is blind like the one I restore,
blind like the servant of the Lord?
20 You see many things but do not observe;
ears open, but do not hear.
