'Deaf' in the Bible
And Jehovah said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? Or who maketh a man dumb, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, Jehovah?
Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind; but thou shalt fear thy God: I am Jehovah.
Unto thee, O Jehovah, will I call: My rock, be not thou deaf unto me; Lest, if thou be silent unto me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
But I, as a deaf man, hear not; And I am as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: They are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear,
And 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.
Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.
Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I send? who is blind as he that is at peace with me , and blind as Jehovah's servant?
Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.
The nations shall see and be ashamed of all their might; they shall lay their hand upon their mouth; their ears shall be deaf.
