Isaiah 42:20 in Context — Isaiah 42
18 Sourds, écoutez! Aveugles, regardez et voyez!
19 Qui est aveugle, sinon mon serviteur, Et sourd comme mon messager que j’envoie? Qui est aveugle, comme l’ami de Dieu, Aveugle comme le serviteur de l’Éternel?
20 Tu as vu beaucoup de choses, mais tu n’y as point pris garde; On a ouvert les oreilles, mais on n’a point entendu.
21 L’Éternel a voulu, pour le bonheur d’Israël, Publier une loi grande et magnifique.
22 Et c’est un peuple pillé et dépouillé! On les a tous enchaînés dans des cavernes, Plongés dans des cachots; Ils ont été mis au pillage, et personne qui les délivre! Dépouillés, et personne qui dise: Restitue!
