Let the pious Jew hear (LXX) the Servant's voice, and despite his pitiful plight trust in Yahweh. Those who kindle the flames of persecution and strife shall become the victims of their own fire, and by His doom shall lie in a place of pain (Gehenna may be meant).

Isaiah 50:10 a. is not a question.
