who has rejected the family of Jacob; 1
I will wait for him.

yet they remained disobedient and stubborn. 3
44:24 Why do you look the other way, 4
and ignore 5 the way we are oppressed and mistreated? 6

you passed through the surging waters, 8
but left no footprints. 9
11:33 Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how fathomless his ways!
11:34 For who has known the mind of the Lord,
or who has been his counselor? 13
