Isaiah 42:20-25

New American Standard Bible NAS

20 You have seen many things, but you do not observe them; Your ears are open, but none hears.

21 The LORD was pleased for His righteousness' sake To make the law great and glorious.

22 But this is a people plundered and despoiled; All of them are trapped in caves, Or are 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 were not willing to walk, And whose law they did not obey?

25 So He poured out on him the heat of His anger And the fierceness of battle; And it set him aflame all around, Yet he did not recognize it; And it burned him, but he paid no attention .

24 Who handed Jacob over to become loot, and Israel to the plunderers? Was it not the LORD, against whom we have sinned? For they would not follow his ways; they did not obey his law.

25 So he poured out on them his burning anger, the violence of war. It enveloped them in flames, yet they did not understand; it consumed them, but they did not take it to heart.
