Isaias
Hebrew Bible
Hebrew Bible, Isaias, Ottley, Cambridge, 1904
14 I have been silent from of old: I have been still, and refrained myself; (now) will I cry like a travailing woman; I will gasp and pant together.
15 I will lay waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbage; and I will turn rivers to islands, and I will dry up pools.
16 And I will make the blind walk by a way that they knew not; I will make them tread in paths they knew not; I will turn darkness to light before them, and uneven places into a plain. These are the things, I will do them, and will not abandon them.
17 They are turned back; they shall be ashamed, that trust in the graven images, that say to the molten image, Ye are our gods.
18 Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see.
19 Who is blind, but my servant, and deaf, but my messenger whom I (shall) send? who is blind as the surrendered one, and blind as the Lord's servant?
20 Thou hast seen many things, but thou observest Inot: opening the ears, and he heareth not.
21 The Lord was pleased for his righteousness’ sake: he make the law great, and make it glorious.
