19 But I say: Hath, Israel, not come to know? First, Moses, saith - I, will provoke you to jealousy on account of a no-nation, on account of an undiscerning nation, will I make you very angry. 20 Isaiah, however, waxeth daring, and saith, - I have been found by them who after me were not seeking, manifest have I become unto them who for me were not enquiring; 21 Whereas, regarding Israel, he saith - All day long, have I stretched forth my hands unto a people unyielding and contradicting.
