Isaiah 42:16-18
Christian Standard Bible
16 I will lead the blind by a way they did not know;(A)
I will guide them on paths they have not known.
I will turn darkness to light in front of them(B)
and rough places into level ground.(C)
This is what I will do for them,
and I will not abandon them.(D)
17 They will be turned back and utterly ashamed—
those who trust in an idol
and say to a cast image,
‘You are our gods!’ (E)
Israel’s Blindness and Deafness
18 “Listen, you deaf!
Look, you blind, so that you may see.(F)

16 I will lead(A) the blind(B) by ways they have not known,
along unfamiliar paths I will guide them;

and make the rough places smooth.(D)
These are the things I will do;
I will not forsake(E) them.
17 But those who trust in idols,
who say to images, ‘You are our gods,’(F)
will be turned back in utter shame.(G)

look, you blind, and see!
