Isaiah 42:23

← Isaiah 42:22	Isaiah 42:23 (KJV)	Isaiah 42:24 →
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.	Who among you will give ear to this? who will hearken and hear for the time to come?	Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the LORD, he against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law.
