Listen, you deaf people;
you blind people, look and see!

Who is blind except my servant,
as deaf as my envoy I send?
Who is as blind as the one made good to,
as blind as Yahweh’s servant?

While seeing many things,
you don’t heed;
while opening ears,
he doesn’t listen.

Yahweh wants, for the sake of his faithfulness,
that he should magnify the instruction, glorify it.
But that is a people plundered and spoiled,
trapped in holes, all of them,
and they’re confined in jails.
They’ve become plunder with no rescuer,
spoil with no one saying, ‘Give it back!’

Who among you will give ear to this,
will heed and listen for the future?
Who gave Ya’aqob as spoil,
Yisra’el to plunderers?
– it was Yahweh, against whom we had done wrong, wasn’t it?
They were not willing to walk in his ways,
they didn’t listen to his instruction.
So he poured wrath upon it,
his anger and battling vigour.
It blazed upon it all round,
but it didn’t acknowledge;
it burned it up,
but it doesn’t take it into its mind.

O Lord Jesus Christ,
stay beside me to defend me,
within me to guide me,
before me to lead me,
and above me to bless me,
that with you and in you,
I may live, and move and have my being,
for ever and ever.
Amen.
