Isaiah 42:15-17
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
15 [a]I will lay waste mountains and hills,
all their undergrowth I will dry up;
I will turn the rivers into marshes,
and the marshes I will dry up.(A)
16 I will lead the blind on a way they do not know;
by paths they do not know I will guide them.
I will turn darkness into light before them,
and make crooked ways straight.
These are my promises:
I made them, I will not forsake them.(B)
17 They shall be turned back in utter shame
who trust in idols;
Who say to molten images,
“You are our gods.”
