And thou shalt¹ gropeª° at noonday,ª as¹ the blindª gropethª° in darkness,ª and thou shalt not¹ prosperª°¹ in thy ways:ª and thou shalt be¹ only¹ oppressedª° and spoiledª° evermore,ª¹ and no man¹ shall saveª° [thee]." {Deu 28:28-29} + "For¹ the LORDª hath poured outª° upon¹ you the spiritª of deep sleep,ª and hath closedª°¹ your eyes:ª¹ the prophetsª and your rulers,ª the seersª hath he covered.ª° ... And the bookª is deliveredª° to¹ him that¹ is not learned,ªª°¹ saying,ª° Readª° this,¹ I pray thee:¹ and he saith,ª° I am not learned.ª°¹¹" {Isa 29:10-12} + "His watchmenª° [are] blind:ª they are all¹ ignorant,ª°¹ they [are] all¹ dumbª dogs,ª they cannotª°¹ bark;ª° sleeping,ª° lying down,ª° lovingª° to slumber.ª°" {Isa 56:10} + "Therefore¹¹ is judgment² farª°¹ from¹ us, neither¹ doth justiceª overtakeª° us: we waitª° for light,ª but behold¹ obscurity;ª for brightness,ª [but] we walkª° in darkness.ª ...
