17Removed backward — utterly ashamed, Are those trusting in a graven image, Those saying to a molten image, 'Ye are our gods.'


In Context

14 I have kept silent from of old, I keep silent, I refrain myself, As a travailing woman I cry out, I desolate and swallow up together.

15 I make waste mountains and hills, And all their herbs I dry up, And I have made rivers become isles, And ponds I dry up.

16 And I have caused the blind to go, In a way they have not known, In paths they have not known I cause them to tread, I make a dark place before them become light, And unlevelled places become a plain, These are the things I have done to them, And I have not forsaken them.

17 Removed backward — utterly ashamed, Are those trusting in a graven image, Those saying to a molten image, 'Ye are our gods.'

18 Ye deaf, hear; and ye blind, look to see.

19 Who is blind but My servant? And deaf as My messenger I send? Who is blind as he who is at peace, Yea, blind, as the servant of Jehovah?
