Revised Version 1885

Isaiah 42:16-22 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

16. And I will bring the blind by a way that they know not; in paths that they know not will I lead them: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. These things will I do, and I will not forsake them.

17. They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say unto molten images, Ye are our gods.

18. Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see.

19. Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I send? who is blind as he that is at peace with me, and blind as the Lord'S servant?

20. Thou seest many things, but thou observest not; his ears are open, but he heareth not.

21. It pleased the Lord, for his righteousness' sake, to magnify the law, and make it honourable.

22. But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.
