Isaiah 42:21-25

Isaiah 42:21-25 TPT

For the sake of his righteousness, YAHWEH was eager to exalt his law and make it glorious. But this is a people plundered and robbed, trapped in holes and hidden in houses of bondage. They are like prey that no one will rescue, like spoil with no one to say, “Bring them back!” Doesn’t anyone understand this? Will any of you pay attention to this in the future? Who gave up Jacob to looters and Israel to robbers? It was YAHWEH himself, against whom we sinned by not walking in holy ways nor heeding holy words. So he poured out the heat of his anger and they suffered the fury of war. His anger enveloped them in flames, but they still did not understand— consumed by fire yet they did not take it to heart.
