'Deaf' in the Bible
And Jehovah saith unto him, 'Who appointed a mouth for man? or who appointeth the dumb, or deaf, or open, or blind? is it not I, Jehovah?
Thou dost not revile the deaf; and before the blind thou dost not put a stumbling block; and thou hast been afraid of thy God; I am Jehovah.
and the sons of worthlessness have said, 'What! this one doth save us!' and they despise him, and have not brought to him a present; and he is as one deaf.
And I, as deaf, hear not. And as a dumb one who openeth not his mouth.
Their poison is as poison of a serpent, As a deaf asp shutting its ear,
And heard in that day have the deaf the words of a book, And out of thick darkness, and out of darkness, The eyes of the blind do see.
Then opened are eyes of the blind, And ears of the deaf are unstopped,
Who is blind but My servant? And deaf as My messenger I send? Who is blind as he who is at peace, Yea, blind, as the servant of Jehovah?
He brought out a blind people who have eyes, And deaf ones who have ears.
See do nations, and they are ashamed of all their might, They lay a hand on the mouth, their ears are deaf.
