3 The eyes of those who see shall not be dim, and the ears of those who hear shall listen.
In that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity and out of darkness.
They also who err in spirit shall come to understanding, and those who murmur shall receive instruction.
Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Then shall the lame man leap as a hart, and the tongue of the mute shall sing; for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.
All your children shall be taught of Yahweh; and great shall be the peace of your children.
and they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know Yahweh; for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says Yahweh: for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin will I remember no more.
