Listen, you who are deaf;
You blind ones, look up and see!
Who is so blind as My servant,
So deaf as the messenger I send?
Who is so blind as the chosen one,
So blind as the the servant of the LORD?
Seeing many things, he gives no heed;
With ears open, he hears nothing.
The LORD desires His [servant's] vindication,
That he may magnify and glorify [His] Teaching.

Isaiah 42:18-21
(JPS)
