7 They say, “The Lord does not see;

the God of Jacob takes no notice.”

8 Take notice, you senseless ones among the people;

you fools, when will you become wise?

9 Does he who fashioned the ear not hear?

Does he who formed the eye not see?

7 Yet they say, The Lord shall not see,

Neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.

8 Understand, ye brutish among the people:

And ye fools, when will ye be wise?

9 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear?

He that formed the eye, shall he not see?

7 “The Lord isn’t looking,” they say,

“and besides, the God of Israel doesn’t care.”

8 Think again, you fools!

When will you finally catch on?

9 Is he deaf—the one who made your ears?

Is he blind—the one who formed your eyes?

7 Yet they say, “The Lord does not see,

Nor does the God of Jacob understand.”

8 Understand, you senseless among the people;

And you fools, when will you be wise?

9 He who planted the ear, shall He not hear?

He who formed the eye, shall He not see?

7 They say, “The Lord doesn’t see;

the God of Jacob doesn’t notice.”

8 You stupid ones among the people, pay attention.

You fools, when will you understand?

9 Can’t the creator of ears hear?

Can’t the maker of eyes see?

7 And they say, Jehovah will not see,

Neither will the God of Jacob consider.

8 Consider, ye brutish among the people;

And ye fools, when will ye be wise?

9 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear?

He that formed the eye, shall he not see?

7 And say, Jah will not see, neither will the God of Jacob regard it. 8 Understand, ye brutish among the people; and ye fools, when will ye be wise? 9 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? He that formed the eye, shall he not see?

7 They say, “The Lord doesn’t see it. 

The God of Jacob doesn’t even pay attention to it.” 

8 Pay attention, you stupid people! 

When will you become wise, you fools? 

9 God created ears. 

Do you think he can’t hear? 

He formed eyes. 

Do you think he can’t see? 

7 They say, “The Lord doesn’t see it.

The God of Jacob doesn’t pay attention.”

8 Pay attention, you stupid people!

Fools, when will you be wise?

9 Can the One who shaped the ear not hear,

the One who formed the eye not see?

7 and they say, “The Lord does not see;

the God of Jacob does not perceive.”

8 Understand, O dullest of the people;

fools, when will you be wise?

9 He who planted the ear, does he not hear?

He who formed the eye, does he not see?

7 while they say, “Yah does not see,”

and “The God of Jacob does not pay attention.”

8 You pay attention, O brutes among the people.

And you fools, when will you show insight?

9 Will the one who planted the ear not hear?

Will the one who formed the eye not see?

7 They say, “The Lord doesn’t see what’s happening.

The God of Jacob doesn’t pay any attention to it.”

8 You who aren’t wise, pay attention.

You foolish people, when will you become wise?

9 Does he who made the ear not hear?

Does he who formed the eye not see?

7 They have said, “The Lord does not see,

Nor does the God of Jacob pay heed.”

8 Pay heed, you senseless among the people;

And when will you understand, stupid ones?

9 He who planted the ear, does He not hear?

He who formed the eye, does He not see?
