19  Who is blind but my servant,

or deaf as my messenger whom I send?

Who is blind as my dedicated one,¹

or blind as the servant of the Lord?

22  But this is a people plundered and looted;

they are all of them trapped in holes

^jand hidden in prisons;

they have become plunder with none to rescue,

spoil with none to say, “Restore!”

8  Bring out ^xthe people who are blind, yet have eyes,

who are deaf, yet have ears!

10  ^z“You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord,

“and ^amy servant whom I have chosen,

that you may know and believe me

and understand that I am he.

^bBefore me no god was formed,

nor shall there be any after me.
